Could you PM me where you got the trim on the A/C panel area? The silver/chrome piece.

You asked what people think, and I personally think it's a bit much. Mainly the lighting mods (90's Fast and Furious), tow hook (you aren't tracking it are you?), fake carbon fiber e-brake boot, giant fake caliper covers, busy interior with chrome (90's bro), giant diffuser, wheel gap etc. I like "clean and simple" style of modifying, and I think a lot of people here might judge that stuff as ricy because they don't make the car faster. I Like the supercharger, real carbon dash is nice, and wheels. But do you either way!

i love it, it gives it some personality which i think the car needs
I personally like the interior, and the chrome pieces. It sure beats your fake plastic pieces. thats for sure.

yes i needed to put a tow hook on it because my carbon fiber rear diffuser covers up the factory tow hook hole. i had to put it on. also my front bumper lip is carbon fiber as well, which also covers up the factory tow hook hole there to, so i had to put it somewhere., that's just common sense.

I recently got into an accident and damaged my rear suspension and wheel. i called AAA, they could not tow my vehicle because my tow hook holes were not there. (i waited 2 hours for them to tell me this) I had to call another tow truck which had a wheel lift and dolly to tow my vehicle. it was a huge nightmare and hassle. I will never deal with AAA again.

There are no e-brake boots which have real carbon fiber. That was one of those things I had to go for more of the look, because there is nobody that can create real carbon fiber as e-brake boot, that just doesn't exist. at least i couldn't find it anywhere.

And yes i currently have caliper covers. My next upgrade is to upgrade all my brakes and calipers. So far i only upgraded my brake pads, brake lines and added those covers. I agree when I upgrade everything else, that will be the first to go as I want real good looking red calipers.

And yes again I wish i can reduce the wheel gap, but it's not practical where i live. if I didn't live in a city with a million pot holes, then yes, id be for lowering my vehicle and doing just that. If i did that now, it would just do so much damage to the vehicle, it's not worth it. I already replaced my front bumper with all the damage done to it already, i can't imagine lowering it further, your crazy.
