But you don't have the gangster down force on the rear end like he has.

the gold wheels are ok, the wing is eh, and the rest is nice

as for the pic you did you should put the carards lower. other than that i like what you've done like with the gauge pods and the wooden panels in the engine bay to cover up most of the wiring and etc...

Yeah the spoiler does stick out and is deffinitly different, but in person it actually does look good. Once the body kit goes on and a few other assorted things it will really come together nicely.

Thanks for sharing the video. I really like the fact you are building your car, not a car to anyone else's taste or specifications.
