Yo,

Hoopty, eh? Hardly!

I'd have to see better pics of the wing, but I like the color combo and rims!

Good job!

Thats a nice looking car, but i can't stand an FC with its Hatch up, I dunno why but it bugs the **** out of me. Maybe because it has that del sol look when its up. Or maybe i'm just weird.

Heh, I bet you hated the pictures of 88IntegraLS's painting project. And you're right, sans the hatch, it does resemble a del sol...*shudder*

Actually the scoop is not in a pressure zone so it does nothing but provied a big ol hole there.

Lighter yes but an N/a hood(aluminum) could do the same thing.

didn't the verts have them as well?

as for the first car... I don't like it.
1:its N/A
2: it looks fast, but isn't (unless you've added a turbo or suprcharger

)
3: its got a big ol' alluminum wing
4: its N/A with a TII hood
5: I don't like how the bronze rims match the bronze paint
6: there's quite a bit of fender gap IMHO

of course, this is all just my opinion. if you like it, then good for you.
