I really like the way they put this kit and wheels together on the car, they fit really nicely and the car looks badass

I agree it looks bad ass. I also can live without the vent on the side skirts.

I dunno, for some reason I like the vents, they're subtle and break up the lines of the car in a good way

Not normally a Hamman fan, but that does (at least in John's head-on pic) look most excellent.

+1000 That looks almost exactly like the side skirt vents on my 20 year old Camaro.



There's too much SPACE in that front bumper. The vast emptyness adjacent to the foglamps and underneath the kidney grilles kills it for me.

The more I look at it I can't help but say "AUTOBOTS TRANSFORM!!"

you guys probably know this but that's just a splitter added to the bottom of the M Tech front bumper. The rear diffuser is an insert too. Pics of the ACS kit I've seen were for a regular car without the M Tech kit so maybe ACS will produce add-ons to complement the OEM kit later on.

And yeah, looks pretty good to me.
