lose the corny lambo doors and you'd have a really cool 8.

Just the factory rear bumper.

Remember this post is about the body kit. The opportunity to flame about the doors was about 5 months ago.

The car will be really nice once it is: 1) lowered, 2) gets new rims (dark), 3) looses the lambo doors, 4) looses the blue tint in favor of a traditional tint, 5) get a new rear bodykit. Your car has a lot of potential!

They take a lot away from the looks, IMO. But your ride is still sweet. FI?

Oh i didn't know that heh. Just thought it wasn't "legal" to not have those lights there, not that most cops would notice or ticket ya for it.

Im not a big fan of the tsunami kit. Doesn't really suit the lines of the 8. Please lose the lambo doors. Sorry.

well it looks ok to me, but I would have gone a different route. It's obvious you're into the asthetic side of things (and probably the performance side too) so if you were wanting to really turn heads, the easiest (and probably chepaest) thing to do first would have been to adjust the stance (lower it duh) as lowering a car can alter a vehcile's looks tremendously when done right. (not to mention it does noticably improve handling) The next step would have been wheels as no matter what anybody says, wheels make the car. Right now everyobdy will be looking at your car and they will say "it's too high and it needs wheels" but if you would have done those things first you could have saved yourself a lot of grief or whatever, not to mention it would have been a lot easier to deal with the fitment of your kit on a car that is already been lowered a while and has had everything settle etc. Now if you lower it, you may or may not have clearance issues and even if you do at first and fix them right away, things could get thrown off again a few months down the road once your springs settle etc. kit's cool, doors are not my thing but I can appreciate the expense and effort it takes to install them, and the car looks decent, I'm not trying to be a jerk or give you a hard time, I would have just done things a little differently priority wise, good luck with finishing it out, I'm sure it'll look sweet once you're done......if there ever really is such a thing
