I admit it looks good man.....

I shouldn't gripe about anybody's mods since mine looks so stock.

Nice job....

That has been a constant mod on my mind that I can't decide on doing or not.... I have the glass top that looks black. I also have a Vortex front splitter that I may put on and idk if I will do it in black or red and I want to do side skirts undecided on black or red for them...

the issue with the front splitter is how long before I rip it off the front of the car

Your setup looks GREAT. Something about your car looks REALLY familiar (see avatar, didn't want to hi-jack your thread with my pics ). I am especially impressed with those fuel rail covers. The subtle hint of flames is perfect. That guy did a good job.

Lol yea they do look very similar ... But I see those fender flares I hope to do some of those in the future however I need a forged bottom end first I dont want it to break and sit in the garage forever... I am really happy with the fuel rail covers he sanded them down put the red then put down the jakes and flames in black and put red back down over the flames to hide them came out very good I couldnt be happier with them.
