not the WHOLE car. just the side vents.

as a whole the car is nice (i have that hood)

difference in taste is what makes the car community. otherwise it would be an incredibly boring place.

I don't like C6 parts on a C5. I like the hood very much.

I'm looking forward to seeing the coilover pics, I think it's going to look pretty awesome once it's sitting nice and low. I really like the black chrome forgelines and the custom TS splitter. I also think some type of rear lip spoiler is needed to balance the look. Either the SLP or Caravaggio would probably work nicely.
