Black roof

Are you going to sell the A-Specs? If so, put some money into them by having them powdercoated and try to make some money off of them.

Now the car looks much more aggressive. Congrats on finally getting the kit.

What wheels are you thinking about getting? Sorry if I missed it on another page.

They will look sick man. I saw them in person when JayVee HAD them and they look like a high dollar wheel.

Yup, I've been all in that 530 thread. Only reason I haven't done it yet is I believe I'd rub with my current tires. I'll have to run a 215 on the 8.75 and possibly I can run my current 235's on the 9.75 rears

It's crazy how subtle the front lip is, yet it has such a huge impact on how good it looks. That front pic convinced me to black out the silver fog light bars, makes it look so much cleaner.

The stock calipers are ugly so I'm not sure why you wanted to bring attention to them

The RDX caliper covers will look great when/if you get those XXRs.

And until you change them, they are NC State red
