great lookin' pics, definitely a sexy car.
The hood is a 'bit' too agressive for that kit, but overall the car looks GREAT!

Have you thought about a respray on that bumper and maybe a clear bra? (I know it wouldn't be cheap though. )
What size / offset are those wheels?

Yeah the pics are really good, sometimes it's hard to get the curves on the BB's to stand out but you did a good job with it.

thanks jedi! i definitely will be getting a respray soon now that the winter is slowly going away. i had considered a clear bra but i heard they can pull the paint off because it was sprayed second hand and not from the factory and the wheels are 18x8.5 with a +38 offset on all four corners

yea black is not easy at all. luckily the lot i went into wasnt crowded so i was able to constantly move the car around the face the sun. and it helps that my father was there to help(photography is his hobby)

and for some reason i think the hood would look 100% better if painted black... it would fill out the vertex more...

Love the hood bro, alot. What I love even more are your seats. You got those put in correct? I doubt they would look good in my Phantom Blue...they look sick in your BB though. We should meet up one day Just got my aero kit, need to paint/install them, then we should be good lol.

thx again everyone for the comments! i agree that the hood does look a little "off" against the black paint. it only looks like that when under direct sunlight so i can live with it for now.

ross, its the vertex lang front not tsunami.

alano we should definitely meet up especially now its getting warmer. o yea and the seats are stock shinka package gets those seats

Tints in NY and NJ are a pain in the ***. What is it now, 80$ a ticket? Most cops around my area are ******, Im dying to get some tints put on mine too. As for the Shinka seats, I didnt even know you had a Shinka, I thought it was a BB, am I not seeing the color or was it painted or am I missing something? Lol.

^What's the legal limit up there? Down here it's 35% but they will let you slide with 32%. I have 25% on mine and I havn't had any problems.

Legal limit is NONE in the front, as dark as you want in the back. Pretty lame huh?
