cool....i think i like the look of it better from a distance as it appears more white where as upclose it has a silver look to it (or the photos do)...and i'm a real big fan of black and white :smile:

You just need to put the aero kit grill on and then black out the rest of the chrome...I'll prolly start working on that this weekend - going to do the door handles, headlight surrounds, and the gas cap in a gunmetal black that matches the black in the aero kit grill. Once that is done I'll prolly order up some MINI badges and see what those look like blacked out...though I think that might not look great....also want to black out the stainless trip below the windows all the way around the car....blah blah blah...sorry to get off topic...anyway your car looks sweet and looks unique...way to go!

That is very very hot. I'm envious! If I ever see a good deal on one of those, I think I'll probably spring for it. I'm thinking about going with black CF to contrast with my pure silver/black. Any suggestions?

I'm sorry I didn't see it on their webiste. All I see are cold air intakes. How much does it weigh? Approx. cost if you don't mind me asking?

Chris

Oh by the way, very cool, I second the aero kit grill comment.

Looks really good. I like the contrast look. I'll take the original scoop off your hands to help you build up cash for that aero package...

We are having a new website made for us right now. The pricing and the shopping cart systm is not finalized, but it will be released next week with everything we offer. The site up now is very old and outdated.

Regards,

-Dan

P.S. For a while, the non-silver scoops will be the only ones sold. Darxar is the only one with a silver one for now!
