Ground effects look good when a car looks like it could have came that way, meaning they flow so well with the car that it doesn't scream "I have aftermarket body parts slapped all over me!" the second that you see it.

20, you left out the other mirror hole I did count 20, I might've missed some. Looks good other than the hood and extra spoiler. The hood is too boxy back towards the cowl and it doesn't need that extra hole, and the 2nd spoiler, why?

I couldn't agree more. The only taste that person has is in their mouth.

Ouch, is it just me, or from the side does the hood look lumpy?

Pretty kickass paint though.
