and here's just some other random pics i took of the car today
what do you guys think? this is my first time doing any detailing besides just washing a car, i think it turned out ok for the first time. next mod im doing is my custom FRC's and painting my whisper lid. i also gotta clean the engine bay alittle more, but, i think it looks alright for the half *** job i did to it. my car is also going to TTP this weekend for them to install a LS6 intake and retune the car.

everything looks good, but the engine bay needs a lot more work IMO

looks very sweet, what color did you use to paint the license plate area?
I like the gmmg tips but I would do something to try and tuck them in. Overall I think it looks nice
thanks for all the comments guys!
