Looks pretty good. Lucky you for having a car that nice at only 17. My fist car I bought at 18 was a 74 Bug.
I like the red valve cover but not a fan of those body kits other than the factory oem one. Dont just over do it.

Nice car dude. How do you like being able to shift the car like its a manual? Im in the market for one but im hearing its pretty useless cause of the rev-limiter so I'd like to hear your opinion. Thanks

sport shift is amazing, no rev-limiter if there is on aftermarket you could use ECU tuner to make otherwise. Just a little bit of shift lagg, but its great becuase you powershift 100% of the time without rubbing your clutch.
