    I like the red cathodes. If they're in fact cathodes. I have a blue led dome light, and thats enough for me. Lol. Like I said before, that paint job is pretty cool. I like it. The red and black mixes nice together.

    O shit! I really like that white outline. And the half black out tails look really good. New rims next? Some nice black ones would look sick. Or the GTS rims blacked out would look sick.

    Yeah that's exactly what I want .. black rims with a red lip, or blacked out GTS rims. I haven't been able to find any GTS rims for sale though.

    Wrecked the car over the last weekend .. so I'm waiting on the insurance quote but I know for a fact that I'm getting GT Concept fenders.

    Yeah it was a minor fender bender, lady back out a parking spot and hit the gas instead of the break. She ran into my driver's side fender and knocked my car out of alignment .. which did about $1200 in damage. So instead of spending $500 for the OEM fender we're going to get the GT Concept fenders for $350 shipped.

    I do like the paintwork....but I think it would look better if the sides went higher, and it covered more of the red. The blackout of the tails works great...creative. Just don't take any more pics wearing that jacket....haha

    looks good, man!

    has the shop said anything about being able to restore the paint job on the new fenders? Just as a heads up, check with your insurance carrier because they might give you a hard time about paying for that.

    glad everyone's ok though.

    Yeah since my insurance company wont pay for the paint work my body shop said they'd cover it 100% since it's a "business advertisement" that they can write off on their taxes .. which is pretty sweet to me honestly but we'll see how that goes once I get my fenders in.

    I'm very tempted in getting the Bomber body kit from AutoCityImports.com but I'm not sure exactly if it would look too much for my car.

    Eh. I don't really like it too much. But, then again I'm not a big fan of body kits. It just seems too big, and looks like it should go on a dual exhaust car. But, if you like it, go for it.

    Bro, I think if you got the ralliart tails for the break lights on the side, that would top off the look of your car on the back end. You wouldn't need to buy the whole kit cause your middle lights are blacked out. Idk, does anyone else agree that Ralliart side mount tails would go better?
