Good thinking TacoBellSauce. that would be nice. But yeah, it would be more skrill.

I was about to say that it would look tight enough when the roof gets done but now that i think about it. Steve, U have to paint the front & rear pillars as well.

Additionally, the purpose of de-badging is to go for a cleaner look from the rear, and have the "A" be the center of attention, but you have that "distinctiv tuning" sticker (on the light of all places) that is VERY distracting. Also, some would say that is pretty rice because I have no clue what/who distinctiv tuning is/does.

Just making an observation here. The sticker seems to counter the debadging, and distracts me. Plus I dunno WTF it means.

/IMO, of course

Like so many others have said, two-tone it with some nice black 19's but don't add the red pinstripe you mentioned though. I think it would be kool.

Get the Mugen Spoiler, and then repaint the back of the trunk to the car's original color. And of course, paint the roof

I kind of like it. I mean, I guess you did it to make it stand out, right? If that was the purpose I think you achieved your goal. I also like hinesktchp's rendition...

distinctiv tuning is an awesome group of cars, but I think the sticker on the tail light is a bit much. Their are more tasteful places to put it.

man that looks wierd i think if u do like the car half black and then ur color it would look different, it's because u just have the trunk and the hood.

the aggressive shit ain my style but do what u do and keep moddin, long as u havin fun
