Speedlines look great.. bra really doesnt look that bad. I am assuming you did it to save your paint though... which is something I have been considering. Looks great.

Let me just give you my take on the bra... It saves your car from chips that is cool, but the wind hitting the bra and rubbing against the paint and scratching it and the moisture underneath the bra will make far more damage to the paint than chips... You should have went with the clear bra (film) if you are set on a bra... Not to mention it looks ghey on a beautiful car like that... Take this challenge... Leave the bra on there for a year, and after that post in this thread and put some pics up of the damage the bra does to your car... My girlfriend had a 01 Z06 vette with a bra on. After taking the bra off (2 years with it on) the paint underneath the bra was more faded than the rest of the car and scratched to hell... BTW the car has 12,000 miles today and barely gets driven... The bra is no longer on and she had to pay $1200 to get the front end painted... Good luck...

Those wheels look sick, but i think that bras make cars look even worse than if they had just a few little chips. Just my .02 cents

4.6 emblems are there for now but I was thinking about some v6 ones with the blue and red painted black

Wheels are great man...speedlines are the best.

As for the bra...I hate them. I can understand why you would use it for long trips, but otherwise get it off there!
