Looking good. It'll be better once you get the grill painted like you said.

I think the back of the trunk lid should be GF to match the dd... maybe that's just me

Also +1,000,000 to getting a real CF roof overlay, that would REALLY set you apart!

as far as i know there is no real CF roof overlay for the sedan, there is one for the coupe that's applied w/double sided tape. for me to be the 1st one made for a sedan it would be a lot of $$$ from what i've heard. i've been told that the roof would need to be cut out to make a mold and bracing would need to go in the car to prevent it from collapsing. it would be pricey to be the 1st($1500ish), only 1/3 of the cost to be the second.

One day I want my car to look like yours! I'm loving the aggressive look, but for me the doggy door sticks out like a sore thumb (a red thumb i.e lol )

I wasn't talking about buying a 'premade' CF overlay... but having your roof overlain in CF.

2 questions.
1. Why not take the red plastic lines out of the tails? I actually like my 04 reverse lights(without lines) over the 05's
2. Do you think it would look better if you tinted the reverse light red outer parts?

I ask because if I am thinking about the 04+ trunk

I was just thinking it would blend in better with the trunk. No tint on outside tails though.

^oops. I misread I thought you were talking about the top of the taillight (blinker area)

You're right about removing the red lines. I'm going to do mine soon, I really like the way it flows with both the 03/04 and the 05/06 tails.

1. I like the lines, i think w/o them there's too much white

2. i've thought about it and since i have another pair of reverses on the way, i'll have another set to play with
