Thought I'd post some better quality pics now that I have most of my exterior mods done. I'm considering one last aesthetic mod that I might get flamed for but oh well. I have older pics in my album. Hope y'all enjoy.

Your car looks great! Very clean and everything comes together in a unified way.

Whats the last aesthetic mod your thinking about? Pink ///M badges?

Lookin good! If I may suggest something... I would get the headlight housing blackened out. That would really set the car off

How did you guess?

Just kidding!

I'm actually toying with the idea of getting the dreaded non-functional Xenon side skirt scoops and molding them onto the stock skirts.

My reasoning is that I dont want to buy any side skirts because I dont want the sides any lower than stock and I like the little bit of exaggeration the scoops give in front of the rear wheels. I just got them in this weekend and will be test fitting them to see if I really truly like the look before I commit. If i like what I see I'll get them molded in and painted. If dont like it, i'll just sell'em and buy the Pink ///M badges

The scoops could actually look sweet when done properly like you intend. Every time I've seen them (so far), they just look slapped-on and ghetto.

If all else fails, an AMG and a 5.0 badge on the rear deck would look kickazzz

I need to find some magenta Plasti-dip

How's the vertini wheels? I'm looking at possibly getting a gold set, but was curious about spacers for the rear.

I used 20mm spacers in the rear to bring them flush.
