pics of my car after grndfx and hood

well here is my car so far... still need rims and a drop
considering whether i want a diff spoiler or not.



for the record the kit is from accolade and there were no fitment issues.
the hood is calvin's cf hood, painted yellow down the body lines on the sides....
I plan to replace the cheesy mesh that came with the body kit with some better stuff btw.
also take note there is no grill in this picture yet, still debating which grill i want.
Any input is appreciated!
thanks

wow im glad i got that kit. actually i got the apex1, but they screwed up and gave me apex 2 front bumper, but if this guy sells me his grill ill sell you mine from accolade. its the regular evo 7 one unpainted, but primed, but so far it lookin reeeal nice. you should get some darker headlights and then you would be the best

wow, looks good! yes, a Evo VIII spoiler and a nice drop will do WONDERS for the ride... how much did the paint job run you (for the kit)?

yeah john you can use that pic....
the paint job was 550, a good deal if you ask me... the match is real good, just a very very slight diff, i havnt decided if i want them to blend it or not
any input would be appreciated as to whether blending is good bad in your opinion! thanks

blending may be a ood idea, but I dont see a color diff. so it must be pretty minor

Not my cup o' tea. But if you like it that's all that matters. Besides I usually have a hard time invisioning other's creative goals.

I do have one suggestion, or maybe question. Maybe that black hood design would look even better if you took that motif along the whole car. Maybe blacking out the whole roof and reversing the angles on the trunk and even the spoiler.

Just an idea.
