I love the look of blackbird stripes. Probably get some myself.

not sure. from what i figured out from the car fax it was hit in the front, bruce from hawks third gen bought the car and fixed it and did the other work done to it, and then sold it to me. beyond the body panels not lining up perfect in the front, doesnt seem to be any other problems.

lol, while no where near perfect, i wouldnt really say its HUGE. although it probably is to the eyes of most on this board, lol. honestly though, maybe its just the camera angle, no one in person has said anything at all about the gap (which is alot worse on the drivers side then the passenger side), unless i point it out.

thanks for the comments though

thanks everyone!

i do kinda have an idea im throwing around. for a awhile now i've been thinking of having some sort of custom decal made for the spoiler, something that would wrap around the inner edge of the flat part of the spoiler, and look similar to the bb stripes (in width and w/ the pin stripes). idk, i think it could look cool if done right. not sure if im gonna have the money to spend on it though.
