Everyone always seems to think the car isnt lowered it has H&R springs I guess I need to get coilovers to drop it as much as you all want it dropped. The H&R's only drop about 1 3/4" in front and about 1 1/4" in back.
Get some 225/45/18's and 100 pounds of sand and then you will be straight.

Good work on the car man. A couple of things.

1. A couple of people suggested lowering the wing, I agree. I think the wing would look good lowered a bit.

2. The black wheels are hard to see in the distant photo. I first thought you had black steel wheels. eek They look much better on the up close shots. I think the bronze wheels approach would be awesome.

3. The body kit you are looking to put on the car would compliment it very well. It would go along with the styling you are trying to portray.

4. The exhaust will look very good with the rear SVT part of the body kit.

Can't wait to see the finished product!!!!!

I personally don't like the wing, but if you like it, than keep it.

Other than that, I think you car looks very nice.

Maybe try adding the SVT rear bumper so the exhaust looks more "at home."
Also maybe try adding SVT side skirts and lowering the car just a tad.
I don't think you should add bronze on the car, but it would provide a very cool color contrast with the deep blue.

Good luck!
