I finally got around to taking some pictures of my car.
What do you guys think of the new grille?

I don't like the bodykit or the hood to be honest. The grill is better than before.

Not quite sure about the grill yet, but I guess it does fit with the look of the front bumper. What kind of grill is it? I haven't seen one like that before.

Glad to hear your car is all back together now though. :tu:

Looks good aside from the hood, not a fan of the carbon fiber. regardless, your car is nice looking.

Nice grille, I had to look for a while cause your car looks so much different than I've seen it for a while... it looks really good! i would have molded the gills on the sides of your bumper but it's lookin really clean! The skirts break up the straight lines a little it looks good! :tu:

The more I look at it the more I like it. I think you should probably consider painting the hood. The grills ok but I think a black 2 bar would have looked better, mesh can look cheap sometimes, not saying that yours looks cheap though. Overall I really like the car, your choice of rims is perfect. I say your next move after painting the hood is to get some stubby mirrors.

BTW- while I was looking at your pics my mom came up behind me thinking I was searching for my next car again and said that I couldnt get that one because it looked "too fast".

Your car looks pretty cool, I really like those wheels! +1 on painting the CF hood ASAP, though. :tu:

Can someone at least photoshop it to have the outter parts of the hood painted. Would it look good with the entire hood painted, but still being able to see the cf?

How does that work? You cant paint the entire hood and still see the CF...

i did see it done in a eurotuner. you would be able to see the carbon fiber if there were just 1 or 2 light coats of paint.

:td: on the body kit, i'm a OEM/euro type guy, (STFU about my headlights, they'll get replaced soon), but in all honesty i don't mind it on your car at all, it doesn't look out of place.

If the shop could color match it a little better and get the correct shade (no offense the PSchop is much better then I could do) it would be perfect. I really like the idea, its definitly unique.
