Thanks for all the input everyone. I appreciate all the compliments and suggestions, and I also understand that not everyone was going to like this particular style. The reason I moved the plate down, personally, was because I wanted to shave the whole trunk and make it look as clean as possible. I love the rear bumper, like some of you were saying, but I felt I could place the plate in there without ruining the beauty of it. Anyway to answer a few questions...
the lights were done by ContourSVT98, who as far as I know is no longer on the board. One of the headlights is still perfect, but the other is leaking a little and I'm going to have to try and fix it myself. I need to open it up and clean it and then reseal it.

I believe Tourige mentioned the lack of power mods. I'm in the process of adding power right now, and by the show on 4/9, the car will have MSDS headers, a Magnaflow resonator, an optimized Throttle Body, and an optimized Y-Pipe. More will come as the funds do, as I eventually plan on swapping in a 3.0.
Matt is right, I'm switching the wheels out and am ordering new rims tomorrow. I'll tell you what those are when you see the pics.
So Jim, if you're serious about wanting my rims, shoot me a PM. I have an ad up in the classifieds right now.
Thanks again for the input guys. I'll have the audio pics up in the next few days.
. Ya got some really dark tint there 
!I was planning to do pretty much the same thing to the trunklid (but never got 'round to it 
) . I was gonna french-in the license plate in the stock spot though . Maybe some day I'll do it - maybe not .
