Looks pretty good man... except for the wheels.... what where you thinking with those? Those are Volks? Well i suggest getting some non chrome "blingy" wheels like the CE28N. Chrome wheels dont work with a "race" type car, possibly on an escalade...

The colour doesn't make the race wheel mate...What were you thinking writing that??Do the race wheels have specific colours like gold-bronze-white-black??No...My rims+tyres weight like stock and are 19's...the ce28n is one of the most ugly rims on 8 in my opinion..Although its one of the most lightweighted...

Car looks damn good. The two toned idea isn't original though. Mac (the winner at SevenStock) was the first I saw or heard of with that idea. His is yellow though. But anyway, your car looks great.

Car has a little too much going on for my taste. For me less is more I would just rather have the full MS kit with shaved emblems and a single color paint job with some 19inch wheels. But its your car and your creation so I can't knock that.

Thats why each one of us has our own 8 that we can do what we want to.

Hey, my Greek buddy started another thread for his mods. Haha, I won't cause a ruckus like I did in the last one. I, I can't believe I'm saying this, like it. Wow! There I said it, I like the car a lot actually. I even like the rims that everyone doesn't like. Didn't you have to get different ones so the big brake kit would fit? That's what I thought anyways. Dawg, your car must be the **** over there. There are so many sucky, compact, tiny, slow, rides everywhere you go, it would be a relief to see a car like that going down the road.
Props.
Props.

Agreed with the others, I like the two tone, but it almost looks like the texture or even perhaps the shade of black is different between the hood and the nose (in the first pic). Prolly just how the light hits it.
I normally find any Veilside kit to be HIDEOUS, but it doesn't look that bad on this car. I wouldn't put it on mine, but it looks alright with the color scheme you have. And pete's sake, PLEASE pull those Z3 vents off the side. I recently saw a ricer Civic with a set of those...really cheapens the looks of the car IMO. They gotsta go! Wheels are a bit busy, but look OK with the rest of the car.
LOVE the seats, LOVE the doors. Nice ride man...just lose the vents.

If some one described it to me w/o pics I would not like what I would have pictured in my head, but that's not the case when seeing it.
It is extremely aggresive yet still very tasteful. No usually pulls off a modern car w/ a 2-tone paint but you nailed it. The best part is you left off the spoiler/wing!
I can't imagine what it looks like in person.
Great job.
Two thumbs up.

Not the cheap-bad opening-squizing to get in lsd doors...
Thanks for the comments good or bad-the bad doens't matter to me...
The colour is the same in the nose and in the hood..Not a single tone difference..We had a mag photoshoot there and we had the car where the light hits the nose...
The sig is old mate..See my garage for the mods not my sig..I ll change it soon.
