thats cool that you did the whistler mod with white paint. i bet it'd look tight black now that you have black rims. but it looks great either way man

Looks great! Berger panel would tie in the black/white theme nicely.

looks good, i would go with a stripe somewhere on the rear qtr's, i think a manta would be to much on the front. maybe tie a black berger in with some stripes. nice
