Thanks, I couldn't decide between the blue or clear. I figured since the car is blue, that the blue mirrors may not "flow" as well as the clear did. Yours look good too. Looks like you and I have similar colors, but flipped. Good choice.

Only thing that changed from before & after on the outside, is the Grand Sports, Springs, no side badges & Lack of Tint on the hatch (Some ******* threw a brick through my hatch and I havent gotten around to re-tinting the entire car.)

Don't really have any stock pics, seeing as how I installed the Magnaflow and Pro 5.0 the day after I got the car, but here is the oldest pics I have :

Here it is after (the way it is now) with the new wheels, G5X3 cam, and under the axle true duals

Love the car man. I was wondering where you got your hood from? I searched the internet but couldn't find anything. I wan't to get a carbon fiber hood for my car cause it's a heavy bitch and would like to shave some weight.

Ahh, ok, that explains why I couldn't find anything. Atleast VFN still makes cf hoods. It's pretty funny I was just on CCW wheels website and low and behold there was your car.
