holy ****, that thing has got WoW factor. Definitely feeling it. That first shot is awesome, was it taken somewhere in Wva or PA perhaps? If your car was created in a vacuum of no ricers existing, its a great example of what modded cars could all be.
p.s. I'm also going to jock your plate location how did you do that, black stretched zip-ties?
Oh, and keep the sticker, looks pretty cool at night probably.

as for the plate, no, i took off the stock holder and pulled the 2 metal threaded clips from the back (the part your plate screws bolt to) and drilled 2 holes in the side of the bumper. i then glued the 2 metal clips to the back of the bumper and just screwed the plate on from the front.

since i've gotten a few questions about them, yes i have LEDs on the rear bumper, front bumper, and a lightbar up front and in the rear window for the emergency squad and rescue task force i'm on. the front bumper lights are blue and white, the front bar is blue and amber, rear bumper lights are blue, and the arrow stick is amber. they all have seperate strobe patterns, except the arrow stick, it has patterns to direct traffic left and right as well as flashing. i set the exposure on my camera to 1 second so all the lights look steady on.
i also have 90 watt white strobes in the headlights (high beam) and back up lights.

I think it looks pretty tough. I don't have the cajones to do that to my CR Shinka but I'm glad you do. Because know I know how baddass it would look all riced out. If that is the correct term. Nice work.

the trunk and hood are both VIS. i've heard that the quality isn't the greatest but i have 2 friends that swear by VIS, so i figured i'd take the chance. I do all my work myself, and i won't lie mounting the wing on the cf trunk was nerve wracking i mustve measured about 20 times to make it perfect.

why would you do that too your Shinka?
Did your hood get damaged from taking that pic? (waterfall pictures)
Don't know about you guys, but I wouldn't want rocks falling on my aluminum hood.
Wouldn't want too ruin that paint either.
