Locve the wheels and the air dam. I've always backed up the use of garden edging for front lips. To me, looks better than the real deal.

Overall.....I like the car. The color makes me not give 100% props, but you done good, kid, lolol. Later, QD.

Brave souls they are....or desperate skanks. If you don't know how a lowered Tic Tac isn't a death trap then I don't know what to tell you. A roll bar and a home depot lip isn't going to save you from a soccer mom in her Suburban on a cell phone.

You could try using one color like just black. Or use evenly spaced zip ties. It still wouldn't look good, but it would look a lot better.:2cents:

Well it's there for a reason, and it's not by choice in some groups. Black is boring. Point was to put a fruity color on.

I dont know......5 star safety ratings go pretty far.

Couple years ago my truck went a round with my buddies Miata. Totaled the truck and Miata came out unscathed.
