No. I might end up doing that afterall until something else comes out. There only 200 bucks. It will give it a well rounded look.

But below you will see the Shine Auto Spec S kit, Stillen Canards, and the super sexy Carbon Signal Hood Vents that I had molded in. Boy they look killer. I bought the Shine kit in FRP and I plasti dipped it.

I went this route being I track my car a bit and I felt this was a great alternative than expensive paint that would get tore up my first day out which is coming soon enough. I can easily repair or redo on the fly with plasti dipped. Which has already shown me from three track days that it's very durable.

I also added the Stillen front canards for some front downforce for some extra bit threw the turns. Especially any off camber turns. As far as the rear I'm not sure what I'm going to add back there. I've been holding out for something that really grabs my attention.

Then finally the Carbon Signal Hood Vents. I'm so glad I got these. They are sharp as hell. Many props to the guys at AutoGlo. I know it had to be a pain to do but I'm happy to sport this rare piece. It sets it off in a good aggressive way. So hope you like and enjoy.

Man that looks sharp as sheit. Great job !

Looking awesome Spohn. Love the hood. Car is looking badazz. How has it been treating you on the track?? Also, how do you like the Stillen brake cooling kit?? You are the first member I have seen install this.

Thanks man. The car is great on the track. No issues yet. The Stillen kit is great. Course I haven't had a chance to use it yet. But I will at the end of the month. Need to get a pyrometer though. I still need to install my GTM diff cooler kit also.

Yea there flexible but the shape you see is the original form. So you can play with them a little but there's no real need.

The body shopped said it was a MF in there words being your molding fiberglass to aluminum. My buddy here on the forums who's a body man said it wouldn't of been bad and his way defiantly makes it seem easier from what my shop did. But everyone does things different. To bad my buddies shop only does mostly insurence work.

But it looks good and hopefully it will last.
