Default **** Body Project Complete****

Well after two weeks of me being impatient... It is finally done and headed to RevExtreme for the performance mods.

Driven Concepts ( www.Drivenconcepts.net ) in Tampa did the work.

-Rear lower Fascia Painted Spiral Grey (Wanted something different)
-Car was repainted silver instead of just colorblending
-RKSport Spoiler and canards installed
-ShinobZ's Stinger hood installed
-The rest of Richards complete "Black Cherry" kit was installed


And now for the pics

Was there any problems with the fitting of the RK hood? I am looking at the RK5 and have been told the fitting is horrible and needs alot of work to align.

Car looks Great!!!
