wow nice ride bro!!! It's so sporty yet not over the top at the same time. i think having that spoiler carbon would've set off the ride, but looks good this way too. I cant wait to have my trunk installed now that i see your pix, it completes the car!

looks real good. I would prefer to have a color matched spoiler opposed to black. Yet everything together looks clean.

Looks dope as fvck, but why the hell did you have the trunk painted like that?? If you were going to leave the tail unpainted at least follow the lines on the back of it, looks kinda awkward the way its painted now.

^^I would have brought it almost to a point, basically the 3/4in or so spot where the trunk/taillights change angle.
That would be one of the "couple of things I would have done differently" that I mentioned before.

I followed the original CF lines. If you look closely at the Fin/Tail from the rear, you will notice that its not 100% straight, so following it wouldn't of looked right. I was thinking of re-doing it during the summer with a fade/ghost look.

Here is a closer look at the top view, ill post a closer picture of the rear view..

^The top doesn't look as out-of-place as the back/bottom part.

Maybe when you redo it, you could ghost it in on the top, and strike a sharp line across the bottom, even with where the lip 'breaks'

It looks better in person, the picture is a bit decieving. I was out of town when my painter was sending me pictures and I was thinking the same thing. Once I saw in person, It met my expectations...Thanks for the advice..
