Love everything but the wheels and chrome roof trim. Since you have a black vinyl roof and roof spoiler is black, the chrome trim looks weird. For the wheels, I don't mind that it's chrome. I don't like the 3 spoke look.

You asked, here is what I think....
ACS Trunk Lip -- SUPER
Roof Spoiler -- GREAT
Black Vinyl Roof -- NOT BAD AT ALL
Chrome Roof Trim -- BIN IT
Magnaflow Exhaust -- NO COMMENTS
Rims -- WHERE DO I START? GIVES ME NIGHTMARES, BUT EACH TO THEIR OWN I GUESS.
Tinted Tails -- COOL
Painted Calipers -- WHY?
What do you think? -- GREAT CAR. I THINK THERE ARE LOTS YOU CAN DO WITH IT IF YOU KNOW HOW.
Especially the rims -- SOUNDS LIKE YOU REALLY LIKE THOSE WHEELS. WHY?
Hope I don't offend. Overall its a nice car and some of the bits you have done are really nice. Its a beginning to a really stunning motor. I would seriously reconsider the need for those wheels and chrome stuff. Change them to black and use a nicer rim with black inserts and you are on a winner.
Thats just my opinion though.
cheers

You wanted opinions so here it goes... Please don't be offended but those rims belong on a 1995 Camry with bubbling purple tint and a boombastic subwoofer rattling the rustbucket apart. Other than the rims the car is sweet!
Yea, sorry bro...kinda feel the same way about the rims.
