Ok heres some of the little things i did that some people might not of known about.

Fake Carbon Fiber molding to hide the ugly fading silver stripe.



Carbon Fiber Badges for rims.



Carbon Fiber Logo on GFX



Carbon Fiber Badge on C pillar



Fake Carbon Fiber molding on Tail lights to hide the faded Black Stripe.



Shaved Antennia on front passenger side fender and moved it to the passenger rear fender and angled it.



This is my favorite of all.... A picture of Erics sweet Convertable in my paint..... ;) Best mod of all! Boosted coolness by 3 points!



Picture of all the subtle mods... Not all are easy to notice unless your looking for them.

The fake Carbon Fiber trim is that stuff you can get on ebay for dirt cheep. Just clean and dry the surface very well and apply. Mine has stayed on for years and never pealed. The real carbon fiber badges were custom made by a company that i dont think are in business anymore.  :(

Hmmm, yes, neat, but..... Out of line taillights = FAIL.:p

Your car does look pretty bad ass though. Is that wing from an MN12?

Those tail lights have long been replaced. As you can see they had chips in them. New lights are mint and no the wing is just a basic universal wing i picked up when i bought the GST kit.

Go with the one on the left.  The Explorer one doesn't go IMO.  That like putting one that says "Focus" under there.

Finally got my front emblem on.

Now I just have to get a nice day so I can clean the car and snap off some good pics.  I have a spot in mind, but now the weather won't cooperate.  It's rained almost every day for the past week and a half....

I keep going back and forth on which intake plate I like better.

I like the clean look of the Explorer plate, but IMHO the word Explorer has no place on a bird. :p
