That's how I roll son. Been doing this for years. Stick with me and I'll teach you things. Hahaha!

Thanks man! When I first saw this new aero kit (especially the rear and the new sides), I was sold. It had me at hello. LOL! I think the key is Alpine White with this kit though. I think darker colors would cause much of the detail to get lost within the black accents, hence the reason I didn't do Jet Black again. This is actually our first ever white car. It was a big decision, but I think it was a good decision. Probably won't turn heads like the black one did, but that's ok. You gotta change it up from time to time.
