Looks really good. May I suggest taking off the wiper assembly and painting that gloss black with clear. Makes it look alot better. IMO

OH DAMN!. that car is awesome. different in very good ways. the hood is really aggressive but it fits the car perfectly! that's the first time ive seen the rear bumper filled in like that, and it does look rather sleak. MAJOR props to you.
