Now you need a GT3 wing to compensate the front bumper.

Nice. Quick question Mel: I just installed 19" R 98's. I find the ride over the inevitable pkwy expansion joints to be choppier and very noisy as compared to the origional lobsterclaws. What is your experience with this? gerry

The yellow really shows off the GT3 front bumper- contrast with the black vent is great! Have you considered adding a rear spoiler to make things look balanced front to back? It looks a bit nose heavy due to the lower hight of the front. A rear spoiler (check out the Misha GTM wings) would look terrific.

Awesome!!!

Looks absolutely stunning !!!! The rear wing is a personal taste thing . You could leave the car "as is" and it would be fantastic but if you want ideas ... look further.

On that yellow car my pick would go to Techart . The side skirts and a wing would balance it. Here's a yellow widebody I found searching which has a Gt3 front like yours. I like the type 1 wing . I can't make out this wing but you can see the balanced effect..
Notice the side skirts - http://imagineauto.files.wordpress.c...7/dsc01192.jpg

These details I could not find on a yellow car but I think it would look great on yours .
Here's a close up pf the mirror insert in carbon -http://www.cecwheels.com/image2-2995...demirrorinsert

Here's a distance photo (look at the mirror) in matte.On your car I would pick matte. I could not find a close up. http://www.cecwheels.com/image2-2877...lampcoversside


One more thing --The Techart roof spoiler (painted yellow ) would complete it .

Ken-

His last set of wheels the "OZ Raffaello's" were 20's as well...I know b/c if they were 19's I would have nabbed them....
