Please tell me you're thinking about gold emblem overlays...

Haha thanks man !!

I'm undecided, what do you think I should go with ? Gold with black stars ?

I think gold with the silver/chrome stars would work for Lotus-esque look, or even BRG and white to lean more towards Racing Mate.

I won't have any black with BRG references until you do it!

I dont get why so many people want to put louvers on their modern builds though.

I don't get why people want to put aftermarket wheels and rims on their cars. Or even tint, or bucket seats or even drive them as daily drivers or add body kits.

I want it because to me my frs is an achievement of overcoming poverty. It's also unique to add louvers since 99% vehicles on the road don't have them. I dig them so much.

It's the feeling kids get the first time someone other than their family acknowledgedes something great they did.

I see louvers as sexy....more than adding a sc or turbo.

Yes I get all that, but strictly speaking about esthetics, I just think it doesn't fit modern builds so well. If you get old school wheels to go with them or spmething else retro now that's different! Just my personal opinion.

Lol I rarely look at the shoes I'm wearing, so not fan of wheels, but I see your point.

Thank you for respecting old 70s/80s sportscars and not sticking a huge wing on the back of it! And OMG, BRG! That is on sweet ass color!
