i really like the CF roof panel.
the spoiler & exgaust gotta go as do the tail lights.
i wouldnt mind the grill if it had a smaller opening and be closed off at the bottom and maybe had some wire mesh behind it.
i bet up close it looks alot better than in pics.
i think the exgaust would look better if the mufflers were recessed alot more under the car with tips with larger openings but definatly that spoiler has gotta go.

The work is great.

As far as it being a TA, I thought it was a Ford Probe for a minute. Little much for me, but allot of work has gone into it none the less.

I like it... MAYBE a different spoiler, MAYBE different wheels... The work is top-notch and UNIQUE... I do like it.

CERTAINLY would have been nicer in a nice blue, white, red... Just not the purple-ish color.

Cool.

Oh, and yeah that sucks if it's just a V-6 for sure.

I respect the work that went into it. And some parts are cool, like the CF roof pannel. But beyond that ICK.

I can respect the hard work - because it's hard work. But I thought I tasted Throwup in my mouth for a second.

There's another one with that same front bumper but it's red, and it looks MUCH better.

Being " normal " is cute and all but sometimes you got to step out of the box to stand out from the crowd. The car looks great although the rims, color, and spoiler has to go.

On a positive note, with a CF roof you won't get those damn bubbles since you don't have paint...
