The front end looks a bit too busy, mainly due to all the holes that the stock front bumper has plus the added eyelids and cf hood. I think your 8 would look great with a full MS body kit or something similar to it.

Thanks for sharing!

I think it looks pretty clean, always nice to be the only car of its kind in a car show!

I would say some nice side skirts could really boost the look of the car!

happy motoring!

Every time I see the MS wing, I get the urge to get one. Might as well get it over with.

Side Skirts would seriously help the side views of your car. Still looks good in my opinion.

if they are just for looks, it doesnt really matter on the brand, but if your gonna use that as your primary saftey belt, and/or track the car....dont get cheap....but a good harness and install it right.

I would go with the Takata 5 point with the cam-lock. that is what i used in my miata, of course it also helps to have a seat that is made for 5point.

looks pretty clean! I'd remove the eyelids, though, because they clutter up the front end a bit too much.

The Black Dragon resembles that remark.
