    I think it will look pretty good when it's done. I don't see why every one hates body kits some of the nicest cars on this site have them. I am not a huge fan of them myself but when done right they look great.

    I can respect the work you're doing but not the choice of "big wheels and body kits"

    It just screams for attention and that is pretty annoying. Also I say its a bad choice on the TT setup for your wife if she has a heavy foot. I see this car being totaled in the near future no matter how big your brakes are. If she doesn't know how to drive it you better teach her or you better get full coverage insurance and claim all the work you're doing to it. Nice paint by the way.

    Yeah she knows what she is doing behind the wheel that is no problem, and as far as the insurance I am an Agent myself so that is not a problem. I will be fully covered.

    I am putting Stern ST1 face 3 18/8.5 on the front and 18/9.5 on the rear I know that will bring up crap discussion. But I think it looks good so...

    Truer words were never spoken man haha. An unhappy woman has a tendency to make everyone else just as unhappy as her.

    Car is looking very good too. A lot better than I expected. The body kit is more of a wide body look than a fast and furious which is a very good thing to me . Cant wait to see the rest of the stuff you have planned.

    The top is Honda Granada Black with the gold pearls taken out and a double dose of red pearls added back in and the bottom is black cherry mixed with wild berry and an extra dose of red peals added to the bottom color. The pen stripe is mercedez silver and the whole car was cleared with a clear coat that had red pearl mixed into it. I came out very good we were going to go candy but after researching it the paint just won't hold up very long and we would have to redo it again, and that crap gets expensive.

    Yeah man, I actually like the paint job and the kit man. Looks real clean. I would take off those mesh grilles though on the kit.

    Don't even listen to these kids that are dogging on your wife's car. The kit and + paint alone probably costs more than their car anyways.

    Everyone really need to get off of this anti-body kit shit. If it looks good, it looks good.
    precisely, if it looks good, IT LOOKS GOOD...
    i think it could look quite nice, good color, kit isn't TOO gawdy, i think an excellent fit wheel and the proper stance... this car will be very sleek!
    coming along nicely.
