Not sure I like the back end (Taillights have weird edges to them, everything just kind of flows with smooth lines). I guess I'd have to see it in person.

Sides look great . I think they'd look even better if there was still a "Separation" from the actual fender to the trim pieces, rather than just being one big piece. Adds some dimension to it.

And aerodynamics. How do you make a brick more aerodynamic?

the tail lights are stock, it's a rendering... and sorry I didnt spend much time on the tail lights LOL and as usual I had too little time to spend hours and hours perfecting everylittle detail cause the client was like OMG I NEED IT IN A DAY!... :: stares at MEGAmini ::

as for the rest... to each thier own... you install yers how you like... I like my fenders molded in... :D

Think outside the box, you need to create a Vacuum around the brick so there's no aerodynamic drag.

Thanks!!! Appreciate the feedback... (taillights are stock; on production kit, there will be separations, e.g. fenders, bumpers, sideskirts, etc.)
