    Looks good, but please take that wing off. It looks absurd and is totally out of place.

    imo, it does take away from the look but your car is an expression of your own taste. something i like, you may not like, so on and soforth. whatever you choose to do make sure that your happy with it. afterall it is your car

    maybe tone the wing down a bit. maybe get an M3 tiny spoiler! that would still let you have the wing but wouldnt draw everyones attention to the big wing!? and it would be subtle! and we all know that subtle is good! good luck!:)

    well i did consider taking off the wing at one point cause of the weight. and i really do like the way it looks with the wing off. im happy with my car wheather the wing is on or not. but i do want to achieve more the JDM look and if that means taking off that wing i would be more than glad to do that. i really like hearing other peoples opinions and advice on making my car look as JDM as can be. as long as it looks more JDM im more happy.

    thanks guys by the way for taking the time to even respond to me...there are alot of forums that i have signed up with and no one even bothers to even reply to me and give me some pointers...thanks for showing your support!

    HA! WOW thats SICK!
    i knew i should have gotten the clear YELLOW corners... well i'm going to order new ones tommorow. heh. and get yellow bumper lights...holy crap i didint think they would look good. but thanks to that pic above i know that would look sick. great work by the way "JussHatched" looks amazing. you just inspired me big time.

    by the way the wing has been taken off and the holes where bondo-ed and sanded, primed, and painted. but i finished the work really late and it was dark already so im going to take new pictures tommorow during the day.

    thanks again for all your help guys, i really look forward with working with you all.
