In regards to the exterior, not my style, but looks well done. I'm more of a fan of subtle and monotone paint/graphic applications. Personally, I think the GT-R is a wonderful looking car that needs nothing.

Then I will justify my two-tone scheme

.
1. Was my vision when I got the car
2. Find someone else with the same scheme
3. Always try to think out of the box (must be the artist in me

)
4. Hey! Its Vinyl, I can remove it whenever I want

I'm not a fan of the Vinyl but it looks pretty cool without the wing.

Not sure how one totals two NSX's, but congratulations on the GTR nonetheless. I like what you've done with it, the flat black rear reminds me of the C5R/C6R Vette scheme which I've always liked.

I am a designer by trade as well, I use to want to be a car designer myself until I realized how much politics there are in that business. Now my way of doing that is modding my car. Anyways, keep it up.

sic skills man!

...when do the new shoes arrive?

I taught for a few years in the late 90'sm, while I was getting my masters (which means I was paid at the masters level)...

I can honestly say that while I was doing that:

I had more fun modding my rides (1961 and 1964 Impala SS's) than anytime since then...

I had a lower overhead and therefore, percentage-wise I had much more spendable cash...

I had the freakin summers off to work and get paid extra cash and to cruise my rides...

I had the best benefits package ever! So, I spent less on everything...

Teaching rocks! If you do it smart, the sky is the limit! My Mom retired after 24 years of teaching and she wants for nothing!

I Have to give a special shout out to Joseph at Wheel Executives, and Scott at 360forged for the quality customer service! Wheels are finished in gunmetal centers, matte black lip and metallic blue pinstripe. I've got a set of Swift springs on order to replace my Eibach Pro's. That'll close the wheel gap a bit in the rear , so both front and rear will be 1" in drop, vs Eibachs .8 up front and .5 in the rear. Enjoy!

Flat black with those wheels =

Oh, and no wing. As long as you keep it under 100 mph, the wing should not matter.

And no need to justify to us. Just say you deal Meth and be done with it
