And lose that front bumper kit. Hideous. Other than that, it's ok. Later, QD.

After seeing all that, I can't believe I didn't see some nice flashy wheels...lol


Get some wheels and I think it would look pretty good.

everyone has their own taste. good luck with the rest of your "build". do to your ride as you wish but remember when you ask for critique, you will get it.

you need a drop desperately. i was told that for the longest time during my build.
the grill sticks out like a sore thumb!
the mnirrors don't flow at all with the rest of the car.
you need some aggressive wheels
tint
etc...

again good luck

the bumper isn't completely hideous, just looks goofy sitting 3 feet off the ground. and the painted mesh in the center is killing it too, rip that junk out. chicken wire wasn't even cool several years ago when tons of people were using it.

I don't like the tinted headlights or the door mirrors..

Not a fan of bodykits like that but w/e..

The car seems to be very clean, but theres always room for improvement on the appearance. Its not that bad, some staggered wheels with the right offset will make it look much better compared to the stock 16's. Good luck.

I've seen your car b4 at the Varsity, I let u park with us one meet. go to seloc.net for ideas :)

A lot of people are being pretty mean here but do understand as they stated, u post on the internet and its free game.

A lot of people act like they always knew how to modify a car. Take the time to learn from O.Gs and people that haev been there so u don't make the same mistakes.

My advice is fine a theme for your car. DOn't mod all over the place. Don't buy cheap mods first. Save your $$$$ and do it right. I recommend a drop about 2" and some wheels. Don't go crazy ugly big wheels. Nice tasteful ones. You can even do stock GS 18" wheels from the newer GS.

If you want to go carbon fiber, Tony (CarbonGS) did it right and went all out with CarbonFiber. You can learn a lot from him if you want to go that route.

There is the OEMish mod type and that is what I did. Everything I did is subtle and mostly suspension bits so my car would handle better.
