You build your car the way you want it, because it makes you happy and individualistic. You're not building it for others to ogle and compliment your taste .

Looks great WC did you run any spacers? I looked at my car today at the shop and now im debating if i should do 15mm rear 7up front just to make everything look alittle flush. My cars on stock suspension. Until spring time coilovers. Any feedback anyone?

I like the lower profile of the Misha ducktail.
A little more subtle and no 3rd brake light.
As for the wheels, actually no spacers.
Previous owner installed C4 wheels so the look is still okay.
I did wonder about rubbing as the S' stance is an inch lower.
Running 305's on the rear with plenty of clearance.
They do stick out a bit but no rubbing and looks good.

I love the ducktail look but not this particular one. Have you considered molding it in? I bet it would look great.
