Haha no no COTM for me i tried that once didnt go well with the wing. Well you all kinda suprised me with the comments. I appreciate it i really do. I have but a lot of work into this car you can ask anybody who knows me. I didnt paint it myself thats about it. I didnt say this in the earlier post but the wheels were painted also.
I plan on doing a lot of shows and trying to get in a magazine. HIN in Charlotte should be my first one. Would love to pick up some sponsors but wouldnt everybody.
Impulseballer whenever you start doing more carbon fiber work i need some stuff done so let me know.
Thanks again for the comments

My thoughts are as follows:
Pros: Ok, I love the color and the cars flows fairly well to include the wheels and bodykit.
Fixable Cons: The front bumper is just not doing it for me, and I think it is because you need to remove the grills in the front bumper/hood and spray them black to match better. I think it flow a lot better with your theme. The SS badge in the grill looks crooked as well. Finally, a full front carbon fiber splitter instead of the two ends would definitely set it off.
Overall though, not too shabby. This is coming from someone that absolutely hates bodykits as well for the most part. I'll give you the

I like the color. Not my pick for a body kit as it looks a little busy up front. But overall it looks good. What kit is that?
And change that, I love the color. Pre-production had green as an option in '05. Little useless fact

To answer some questions the front and side skirts are made by RKSport and the rear bumper is the BC2 bumper. As far as the lines i am going to clean them up with a pinstripe those were the first pics i took when i got it from the bodyshop. I appreciate all the comments.

Cool stuff man...I remember your ride, way back from the mall meet in Raleigh. I really like the color...it is bold and goes with the car. However, I am not a fan of the green SS badge...seems like just a little too much. Besides that, excellent paint job...Im sure you will win tons of praise/awards. BTW....that wing looks pretty bad ass...put that on quote...I'm usually not one for wings.

I've never been a fan of bodykits.
To be honest with the paint job, I think Vin Diesel is about to pop out and do up a stripper pole.
Gotta admire the time and effort though you put into it though.
