It looks pretty good but I personally do not understand why so many people are calling attention to the cheapest looking parts on WS6s/TAs by painting them silver. I don't mean to rant and I may be the only one that thinks this but those little honeycomb grills arent the most pleasing to the eye. Some polished or brushed aluminum mesh would look much cleaner in there.

Oh and please do not do a silver CETA mod! You may not think so but doing a CETA mod in black(gloss/semi/flat) on a dark(NBM/Black) TA looks very clean and subtle, one of those things that you catch and appreciate because its not very noticeable.

Just my .02

The stock version looked good to me. Maybe !molding and !emblems would make it look smooth.

I'm not feeling the silver grill on the hood, it kinda reminds of people with nose hair LOL. Clear lenses gotta go, but the heat extractors on the side match the emblem so that looks good.

I agree. Subtle would be better in this situation IMO.

i personally dont like that at all (grilles and clear sidemarkers).
the clear sidemarkers should blend in to the car, or 'disapear" but why wuld you want them to stand out, now when you look at the car first thing you notice is something bright in the middle of the bumper ??
same with the grilles, its sopposed to make the car look mean with holes about to suck little kids in, now it just looks goofy
