Actually loving the front end. Just not loving the rear bumper. Other than that its a real tasteful car. It just needs the power for the look.

Looks like it belongs in the Fast and Furious But yeah, I second the comment above about the rear bumper. Not feelin' it with the plate hanging like that.

like the color but the hood(reverse induction) is pointless but if you like it, that's all that matters. IMO it's also too low and the rear bumper has to go

I would paint the mirrors to match the car and add a front lip... I really like the color, and I'm usually not a fan.

The design of the hood is to expel heat more efficiently... I think it has a point.

yea, not really feeling the caboose. The only reason ppl aren't fellin it is because its not symmetric. The human mind perceives symmetry as aesthetic. Other than that slick ride.
