Ya I noticed the same thing. The gap does look huge. Guess with the angle and the tireshine it does look huge. Most ppl think my car is lowered haha. I will have to post some better pics up.

As someone on here once said:
"Black isn't a color, it's a career"

Great looking car. I've debated whether I like the fender stripes, but with that hood, they look great.

Thanks for sharing.

Sharp car...

Not a fan of the fender stripes though. They look out of place with the rest of the black car.
