clean SS! The one thing that i can think of for improvement is new exhaust tips, those just seem to hang too low but its hard to tell from the pic. Look into the corsa clones

Actually I was thinking about repainting the scoop insert. It was like that when I bought it and also might just cut the tailpipes altogether. I kinda like the look with no tips. The other thing I might change is the wheels, but idk yet.

yeah it would prob look better without the red. You should look into getting the ZR1 17x11 out back with 315s... it looks much better/more aggressive than the 9.5s and you only would need 2 wheels...just an idea

Red scoop insert is a no go and raise your exhuast. Other than that it looks good.

I'm a little confused. Did you buy a new car since you made this name or did you throw SS badges on it? Either way it's a very nice car. Black on Black is sexy!
