What size are those tires? Looks like they lifted your car maybe 1-1.5" higher than stock. The color combination looks good, but the car would look much better dropped.

Nice! Red on black is always a good combo respectively. Diffinitely lower the car a bit if you have'nt already. VR is the fastest color ftw. Gotta love it.

Looks very nice as is. Maybe get the clear corners and lower it.

Keep the strakes and red calipers.

Like the wheels but like other said lower it. I'd also suggest painting the calipers black. Which tires and what size?
