Your car is sweet! (minus the loss of handling). i almost bagged my accord. looks damned good. it looks like it should win you some trophies and maybe even some mag coverage. you should definitely post a pic in the calendar thread, i think your car is a serious contender.

Just my opinions. Please don't paint the carbon fiber hood black! It will make the car appear to be be a wannabe carbon fiber wearer. It will also look like you damaged your stock hood and got a junkyard hood and couldn't afford to paint it. Leave it alone or paint it body color. The huge tack looks ridiculous. Also it impairs vision. Use the stock tach and install a tiny shift light in a vent. Silver painted front engine cover looks very cheap. Get one of the carbon fiber ones to go with the hood. The diamond floor mats look like poo as well. Do you drive a 4x4 or a car? I'll never understand why anyone would think these look good. Really fights the rest of the nice things like the seats and harnesses. Everything else looks excellent! Do those and you'll have a real winner.

imo, a bagged vehicle and racing equipment don't look right together at all. it doesn't have a theme or flow. the car looks beautiful bagged, and it looks nice in a lot of ways (and it's obvious you've spent a ton of time on it) but here are the things i don't like...

-agree with todd... floormats belong in a big truck.
-agree with everyone else... tach belongs on a pro-street car.
-steering wheel... looks crappy on a stock column.
-seats... belong on a tuner or race car... bagged vehicles get custom cut down leather or tweed imo...

like todd said, i don't think you're far away from a winner, but it just seems like your car has a split personality.

So your tachs can "drag race" each other...I guess.
