Thanks for posting Juanito! I think the car looks so good to begin with that it will make everyone more critical of any mods. Having said that, I think everything you have done looks great, especially the tail lights!
Congrats on the car and thanks for sharing your pics!

Personally I like the way the roof came out. I would just wrap the whole car and roll in stealth mode for a bit. Then after I get sick of it, I could easily go back to white. Someone should wrap their car in wood grain colored wrap. That would look crazy.

I was thinking of doing the whole car flat black, but this Texas heat is a killer

I like the hood juan. When i originally had plans for the white FRS i wanted to do everything your doing. I think wrapping the door handles in black vinyl wouldnt be too bad either, matched with some black wheels.. and your good to go.
