If anything, mold the front fenders into the front bodykit and the same for the rear. The lines just dont seem to flow. Also, is there a way to align the front bodykit better? It looks like it's pointing down.

not my cup of tea, but props to you for having the balls to do that...
IMO, if the kit was completly molded it would look/flow at lot better.. and wider wheels would fit better...

TL = Tranny Lubrication
the skirts don't blend in at all - not a good seam, the wheels look too small. Overall it looks like yu got the job done at a high school mech. class. It needs to be cleaned up, removing those bumps in the skirts and aligning them and repainting all of them. The back end? what the hell is that? It looks horrible, you just forgot about it?
Looks like a Michael Jackson after all those surgeries and they forgot to put his nose back on.

I think if you mold the front/back and fenders cleanly it would look good. Right now it looks messy. I don't like the side skirts though. Your back plates looks so sloppy.

Not my style...cleaining up the seams all the way around would help it flow a little better. I don't think the body kit goes well with the lines of the car anyway. Can you do something different with the rear license plate? Just looks like it got stuck there. I wouldn't ever do that to my car, but if that's your style then nice job.

Yes i know i should mold the flares in. The reason for not molding is this is my daily driver and since i have air ride it has lots of body flex, the flare will crack sooner or later. Even if the flare were molded right it will still give out. I have seen it crack on friends cars. The front but dont line up is because it made out of polyurathane and poly dont work well with fiber glass and bondo, it too flex and the glass and bondo will not hold i have tryed.

props on individuality and not carin' what anyone else thinks bout your ride
personally i guess the only pic i like is your avatar
and i guess some advice besides molding all that stuff and makin it flow would be to get wider rims with fatter lips, you got those huge flares on em man, use em!
anyway, i hope you keep workin on it and i'd love to see how it'll look or what you'll do next.
good luck bro

Have you ever wanted to add a lighted hood ornament to your TL (I hope not)? They have it. Cheesey "bumper protecting" moldings? Yep, got 'em. Leopard skin seat covers? That too.
