Had my girlfriend take a few snaps of my car with my the cell phone today. Pix of course isn't that great but you get the idea.

There was a lot of people surrounding the car taking pictures besides me.

Tell her congrats on the 335!

Dude, those rims look a LOT sicker than I thought they would - I've gotta give it up to you for the vision and follow-through



Small suggestion: have you thought about adding some inter blue accents on the wheels. Some really tiny drops of that same blue. Maybe even not "on" the wheels, but calipers?

Love the blue - black theme
And that's still my favourite front splitter, which looks even better colour matched the way you've done it.

Ha! I love how you used the same line I told you yesterday, when I was driving down 5th ave. Nobody else was taking pictures of your car John, in that shithole of neighborhood. All those people in your last picture are walking by it like it's not even there. Keep dreaming though! LOL!

Thanks Vlad. No Blue accents tho. I want to paint to inner silver ring blue but it's too much of a hassle.

YES!! Someone actually agreed to it. Everyone said do it matte black! I like it body color.

Here's what the authentic Hartge one looks like on my car. I actually think your Revosport looks pretty good, considering it's a replica.
