i'd like to see some day time pics, but it looks like it could use some silver accents on the front. like maybe the grill painted silver. same with the rear. it just looks like too much black.

if that's how you like it though, then cool. its not my car. killer looking kit though.

Car is resting on the base model 16's and GT suspension atm. Not even dropped in the slightest atm. I'm hesitant to right now since i live in MA (re: road care varies town by town lol).

And I to can't wait till Spring.. those Dark Chrome 18's are gonna be pure friggin' SEX!!!

The front is too aggressive for your side skirts.

What logo is that on the bumper? The French flag?

It looks funny with 16" wheels.

The small headlights from the eyelids don't match the rest of the front with large openings.

they are kenstyle side skirts, so they match perfectly, and that is the kenstyle logo.

i do agree that the eyelids take away from the front bumper.

Pat to me Cars are supposed to be Driven and damnit I drive her hard (she likes it I swear hehe).

The Eyelids are from Evo-R and are coming up on close to being 2 years old so I expected some pealing by now. I may just use some rubber cement to put it back down. I disagree about the eyelids taking away from the front, if anything to me they make the car look meaner if you will. The logo to me just tops off the front and is very nice and by far not tacky or half assed, if anything its smaller than the HUGE M logo that Mazda has. Keep in mind I live in MA and well 18's in the snow are pretty much worthless to me since a small patch of contact is easier to move than the large patch that the 18's have. I also have no Traction Control of Stability Control either so it helps out ALOT!

New photo's will be taken when the 18's are on her and by then it will all look like she's supposed to. If anything Altspace might be taking those photo's
