looks good man, she looks clean!

IF you're going to go with the carbon hood, either paint the whole thing, or not at all. Partially painted doesn't look good, IMO.

i plan on some silver slipstreams in the spring.. n i ill lower it a bit more as well.. all that north eastern weather will be a pain in the winter.. i bought the car for 2500.. just finished replacing the timing belt and all the seals from the oil pan up. switched over to ROYAL PURPLE 5w-30 full synthetic motor oil and a ROYAL purple oil filter. she is riding smooth with no engine shake what so ever.

How old was the little old lady that knew how to drive a stick? My mom is 60 and ONLY drives a stick! She drives an '06 PT Cruiser with a 5-speed.

Nah I like the silver. Mine's silver too. I'm getting some black wheels though. But it looks like a good start man.
