Hmm. It looks good from the side. I'm not sure why they painted the whole trunk black.

I love the car. But the black roof and black and white color scheme makes it look like a white scion tc.

from the miscolored calipers to the black trunk and roof and white hood, the car looks unfinished. That rear with the exhaust looks so misproportioned too.

It's not that they painted the trunk black, if you read the short article, it says that they added a carbon fiber front lip, back diffuser, and CARBON FIBER TRUNK & SPOILER. I actually think it looks hot, they just need to add a carbon fiber hood and it will really bring that white & Carbon Fiber color combo together pretty nice I'd think. I like it, it just needs a little more.

The only thing missing is a big decal writing "POLICE"
