If you like it that's all that matters. Maybe some more angles are in need.

Momo's are nice, but I'm not sure they come in aggressive enough sizes for the look you are going for. I say slam it on some Super Advans 18x10 +24

I say black coat these bad boys to offset your black on white bodywork. Sex on sex. Too many colors on the exterior starts to look bad.

there was a VR 8 with the red Advans, but he stole a bunch of money from people so now he doesn't come around here anymore.

you should paint the bottom portion of the bumper gold..........errr, i mean black too.

I don't know about some of the rest of you. But i think a continuation of the black forward on the roofline and such to the upwards of the nose would help deviate from the boxy look it has.

I never noticed that the nose was every that square in pictures i guess. But excellent work thus far guy, keep us posted!
