Not too much fan of the bagged out look either but i gotta diasgree on the 87s, I love them. i like them more than the 4.8is wheels

Now that's one mean 4.8is indeed!
Speaking of aesthetics, that CF engine cover is a piece of art! My only concern is what was done to prevent yellowing effect from high temperatures in an engine bay?

Its not Real Carbon......but it went through the Process of the Laminate carbon then add the film..then airbrush it.........if you talk to him..he'll explain it to you better.......the airbrush accents on those 8 pack ..and added shadows towards the middle....

Definitely stop by man..........introduce yourself.......

Tiag---can you explain what you mean........paint the Black flares with Body color?

Papa--i want to see your Interior man.....

The silver panels below the front and rear bumpers have less of a "boy racer" look when they are finished in satin black. Satin black allows them to blend in and give a "single part" look. When they are body color (silver in your case) those pieces take on an added on, non-OE look.

Man, the look is always relative - if the owner likes it, it's also worth it, it's always like arguing which color is better.
