Also seeing all those Lambo's with their wild stripes and graphics just made me decide to go a bit crazy on the car. Added bonus is that its reversible...
When you say "cheap", how cheap is that?

I like it, but those wheels look small with the polished lip.

Yup, they are 18 inch HRE's and definitely dont size up too well lookswise. Decided to stay 18 as there are more tire options for me. But 19s would definitely look better. May go 19 if I do the full Techart bodykit. And yes, the headlight covers may come off soon.

I like the top stripes, and not the side stripes so much.

You know how much opinions are worth!

I like the individuality that you created!

If it were mine, I would just do one thing and take the headlight covers off. The headlights would stand out more and make the car look a bit more mean. But that's only my opinion, you did something super out the the ordinary to make your car stand out, and you pulled it off VERY well.

Enjoy the car, looks great.

Thanks for the comments guys, both positive and negative. Each has their own opinions and I guess I threw the pictures on just to let others get a look see. Cheers.

+1...I think the center stripe looks great and the headlight covers are fine, but the side stripes need to go. If you want something on the side to attract attention, get carbon fiber side intakes. They will look nice with the yellow.

I would have stopped the stripe at the dividing line just above where it currently ends. It would look more finished that way.
