you need the skirts! it kinda looks naked without them, plus it will make it more aggressive looking, it kinda looks bare right now.

I like it! I'm honestly not a fan of the ALL blacked out thing, but the hint of orange is sick. Especially in your fog light housings

I agree with this and I think your car looks very well and original, and also without the side skirts, IMO its just cleaner that way.

if you like the orange, that's all that matters. you have a one-of-a-kind look, and that's pretty cool. everyone has their tastes, from art, to women, to cars, to...whatevs, and it all just boils down to personal opinion. jello said he doesn't like the blacked out look, whereas i personally love it. it doesn't make him wrong (yes it does), and it doesn't make me right.

Well thanks for all the compliments. I just got quoted today $6800 for a single turbo system installed with custom piping and manifold. I just need to do some more homework on bottom end and computer programming

To me it look good but I've already done it on an e46, S60R, xrunner, gsxr1000, and C class. I need to take out those amber lights but I hate baking lights. But thanks for all the input!

I am not sure how old your talking abt but the car looks UGLY to me atleast.
Anyway, keep the mods going
