Default New pics!

Finally got around to having my stripes installed, I'm very happy with how they turned out and equally glad I didn't try to do it myself. Still a bunch of mods to come including an SLP grille, blended CME exhaust, Brembo brakes etc. Tell me what ya think. Took the pics at work as I don't have a good camera myself.

looks sharp, good choice on the stripes. The slp grille will really wake it up.

A nice billet grill would indeed set it off. But new wheels and tires would put it at the top. Your car looks great with the color scheme you have going. Some TT2's would set off the car even more. Just my .02.

I've been leaning towards the TT2's actually, thanks for the compliments!

I really like the direction you are going so far. Like others have mentioned, grill, wheels and maybe clear turn signals and that will be one sharp *** vert.

Keep up the great work.

I was thinking the opposite...nice looking ride, and didn't put the billet grille too. I don't like the billet grilles myself.

I've got an SLP SS grille that just needs to be painted before I put it on. I like the billet ones just not on white cars. I'm going with a vintage SS emblem for it to better match than the silver and black they come with.
