since you asked:

I LOVE It....except...yeah...that rear wing looks ridiculous. I find it hard to take ANY car serious when carrying such a monstrosity.

I hope you don't take my comment to heart. Just an opinion.

I like the rims, but that wing is too much. CF hood actually looks decent on blue.

This also reinforces my stance on registering my 8 in a State that does not require a front license plate before I get my front end.

Like the kit and rims, the wing too big for me, and I'd have painted the black bits blue, don't like the CF hood look - but thats just MHO.

If he's a young guy, I'm sure that the wing isn't too bad. Looks kinda silly for a 30+ year old to drive something with a GT Wing though.

Like last night, I saw a white EVO VIII ... expecting the driver to be some kid, it was a white, bald, at least 40 year old, with a tricked out Evo... Laughable. Embarassing to say the least... hope he works in the industry.

What do I think?

I don't like it at all... any of it.

Other than that, nice car.

Rims are cool but the black hood and trunk lid I'm not so sure about. The wing is a bit large fro my taste. Also the front on the body kit looks funny in the middle where it bows up on the bottom. Still, if you wanted to get some attention and look fast, you've accomplished that. Nice work.

If you look at the front and see the bumper it looks like the car is sad that that spoiler is on it. Now I absolutely dislike CF on the 8, but on the blue it isn't too bad. However with the deck lid and wing it looks really really Honda-ish.

Do what you like as long as you like it...

Don't you mean "This board is a NO FLY zone"? heh heh

Seriously, the wing is too much unless you are in "3 3ast 3 3urious"

Guess I'm from the old fart school too. The carbon fiber hoods and other parts remind me of the rednecks around here that find junk parts of different colors to repair their car and don't paint them
