x7 haha it doesn't even need to be quoted anymore.

Sunoco hood definitely and gloss black for the panel. I wouldn't bother with the stripes, white is already a really nice color espically when done right. Maybe a new grill though?

The votes show the exact reason to get the Mecham wing instead of the SS.

They are voting for what they have, and basically everyone has them.

Yep, I agree with everyone. No stripes sunoco hood, SS spoiler, gloss berger.

I'm not personally a big fan of those exhaust tips. Something a little more polished would go great with the wheels, and an SLP grill

PLEASE dont do the berger panel. it makes the rear of the car look cheap because it looks like you replaced a damaged panel and didnt bother painting it.

however, go with a sonoco hood and an ss wing. i like the idea of the ss wing with the pedistals removed though. that could be interesting..
