I think it looks great. This is the best I've seen your car to date. The one thing that bothers me is that you won't paint the lower half of your car. Seeing nice, shiny to paint only to meet with dull flat black really kills the look.

I know you want to keep the "black" theme to it, but I think that the hood, the mirrors, door handles and the mouldings provide enough of that to keep the theme going (heck, even the window visors help in that department).
Painting the kit isn't gonna make the car lose its subtlety, but actually accentuate its existing lines, not to mention make the car look "lower" than it actually is.

Just a thought. :happysad:

eh, the big reason that lower half is still black is due to the many miles I drive. I got the car with 68k on it, a little over two years ago, and now I have 130k on it. high risk of scraping the lip....

I know what you're saying, tho
