i am thinking more new Viper mixed with Tesla Model S. Either way the giant cross grill is totally not a Toyota or Subaru thing....I really only thing Dodge can pull it off....that is kinda why it is their trademark.

Actually, while it does have the DAMD stickers on the sides, I think that the rear spoiler is something we made ourselves based on the original illustration I made. I'll check on that.

I like how it caries that line on the hood in a continuous ark around the front and under the emblem location. But I think the rest of the lines are a bit too soft and rounded. The rest of the character lines on the stock car are all flowing creases. I think that should be continued into the front bumper.

I agree, i like how it matches the hood lines but the bottom of it just looks pretty generic.

Very cool, thanks. Yeah, I must say that it looks absolutely perfect on this car. It has the DTM/Spec C quality to it that I've really been looking for. Too many of the spoilers currently available today are either too large, or just a lip. Yours bridges the gap nicely and I think there would certainly be a market for it. In my opinion, the current factory on the C63 AMG Black looks amazing and would go perfectly with this car. If something similar was produced I'd purchase it in a heartbeat.

It's better than most aftermarket bumpers.
@SkitterSkotter - The C63 AMG wing looks like the cheap PepBoys or whatever wings I see around here in Southern California, at least from a distance. People around here have these little tiny extruded aluminum wings with fake carbon endcaps and it just looks terrible. The size of the C63 one and it's scale on the car makes me think of those. Not a fan.
