Did you lower the rear as well? I think the car looks way off without a body kit to complement the wing. IMO you should have waited till you got the rest of your kit before putting the wing on.

i lower the front already cause the back it's already lower because of the speaker box. i think if i lower the back it would look funny so i will wait and see. i will definitely add on the side skirt and front lip to make it complete.

what'd you lower the front with? it still looks higher than the rear.

car does not look right without any ground effects to go with the wing. makes your car look too high with just the GT spoiler.

IMHO..... get rid of that AWFUL looking wing. It is an insult to the beauty of the 8.

Roger 10-4 looks like every other accord or maxima with a bolt on but to his is own, just make sure you get that body kit on in a hurry.

It just needs a bit of dressing up with some kits to complement it

I hope that dude know's how to handle contructive critizicsm alright. Hope he goes wingless and avoid further imbarrasment. He or she has a nice 8.
