I've never seen silver or chrome vents in that fender strake area aft of the front wheels. Are those something you did? They look nice with the blue!

mikeb - Got'em, waiting for my stealth bulbs to show up.

KC_RX-8 - Usually I like your ideas but I don't think I'm doing the strakes

bobm -
Yep!

Zoom2X - Nope. The interior was a mess. Just got that detailed tonight. Sorry.

Looks great, now some blue anodized fender strakes would really set it off!

That's one beautiful vehicle. At first I didn't like the silver vents, but the more I see them the more I like them. If mine wasn't silver I think I'd do it too. I agree, I think blue strakes will be wonderful. Great job. Also, since you're so open to suggestions, I changed all my interior bulbs to red LEDs match the radio, etc. maybe you should consider blue, I personally wanted blue but it would compete too much with the red lights. It cost me about ten bucks and everyone loves it. Just a suggestion.

Good shots, good picture prep and color correction. I would not put strakes on your silver gills. Do you have standard 225 width tires or did you go a little wider on those 17's?

yeah...it definately has a "lowered" look. Is it because you have higher profile tires on 18 inch rims?

brothervoodoo & Gyro - Thanks. The snow's are Dunlop Winter Sport M3 235/45HR18. So maybe that's why some are thinking it's lowered.

JensRX8 - That's fine by me. As long as your husband doesn't drive it! Sorry, couldn't resist!

Nice job Whealy.

I know that before I picked up my car, I used your pictures to show everyone what my car was going to look like. Keep up with the great pictures.
