Thanks guys! I have put a lot of work and/or invested time/money into my car which is how I got my car to look like it is now.

Hehe you still haven't seen the other side yet. It still has the gold vinyl stickers on the door. I must admit those vinyls cost a lot!

This might be my new exhaust setup:

Which I think will go very well with the ED rear bumper which allows you to see the sexiness through the mesh.

Oh and btw the carbon fiber is functional for weight saving.

Haha thanks. It does make a big difference. I would of had them painted before SEMA but geez SEMA is all last minute stuff and the shop didn't have time to do it.

$80-120 per titanium tip plus the wait time if they don't have any in stock. Which I had to wait 2 months for it.

The GReddy Spectrum Elite is a maybe. I am still debating if I want the custom setup(picture above) or the GReddy SE.

Lookin fine man!

On the trunk shot i feel like i can see the CF thru the paint, is that an optical illusion or can you see thru the paint like that?

You were joking about the vinyl costing a lot right?

I think the fiberglass eyelids off ebay would be the "final touch" IMO, and maybe some overlays on the turn signals.

I also think that custom exhaust setup w the ED would really look nice allowing a nice view thru the mesh in the back (+1 for coming up with that idea).

Its funny, in this post I made some sugguestions to an already awesome car, but when its SOOOO close to 100% perfect, its like pointing out a pimple on a supermodel!

Great Job Vinny!

p.s. i dont see holes for the rear plates, are you going to drill em?

Nope you can't see through the paint, but I did leave the CF showing where the license plate goes if thats what you were talking about?
LongBeachCoupe wrote:You were joking about the vinyl costing a lot right?
I don't think I was joking lol. They did cost me like $100 and that was a hook up. It might not of been expensive for the vinyls itself. Probably needed to factor in the cutting, labor, etc.
LongBeachCoupe wrote:I think the fiberglass eyelids off ebay would be the "final touch" IMO, and maybe some overlays on the turn signals.
Yep I agree that the headlight section isn't complete. I plan on blacking out the inside housing and tinting the amber. Though of course it does cost $$ or time. It just hasn't been on my top priority yet.

Those fiberglass eyelids could be a temporary solution as they rn't to expensive to buy.

I would love to get the custom setup(Fast Intentions). The difference is just the price compared to the GReddy SE(Cheaper). The quality on the custom setup is amazing!

I dont plan on doing so. Industrial velcro tape FTW. Now everyone knows my secret. Please don't steel my plate.

Keep the vinyls man. I really like the sponsored car look. It's what makes a real show car stand out from the rest. Plus, A) you paid for them and B) you are actually sponsored, so it's not like you're being some ricer with random stickers.

Damn Loop, your whip looks sick. But might I suggest some GTR overlays for the tail lights. I just never liked how big and red our tail lights are. Kind of stick out like a sore thumb. Even just some tint on there to darken them up a bit might be nice. But you have done an incredible job and all your hard work and money has really paid off.

However, I think your car looks better with decals (the ones you had before).

I might consider the opaque black that I have seen on Bats website on the g's. They look pretty sick on a black car.

I will snap a picture just for you tomorrow of the other side of my car because it has the door decals still.

I wish I could get my photographer to take pictures but he moved out of state. You can really tell the difference from my amateur vs his professional photos, haha.

I have a question about the hood. are those vents in it or just a dip? I mean can air get to your engine from those slits? And what about water? And finally where did you get it (link would be nice)

Your car looks sick, my man. Only thing that sticks out like a sore thumb (on any modded a/c) is the orange turn signal insert in the headlights.... goddamn that just ruins it for me.

Great job overall, those advans are siiiiiiiiick too!

They are actual vents. I am not sure if air can get in, but they do help cool down the engine bay.

Water is not an issue. Read AZhitman post:
AZhitman wrote:Hydrolock involves sucking water rather than air into the intake.

An aftermarket intake won't suck up water (unless it's submerged).

Even in the most hellacious downpour ever, the chance of getting any substantial amount of water THROUGH the hood vents, DIRECTLY ONTO the filter, THROUGH the filter, UP the intake and INTO the cylinders is next to nil.

Seriously, it's a non-issue.

You can probably find better deals somewhere else and you should also try contacting an ED rep and see if you can reduce the price from them.
