Looking good. I agree with a couple others. A black roof would look killer on white. And the headlights would bring the whole thing together if they were black.

Overall I like your car.

What's that above your front driver side splash guard? And keeping the plate on the dashboard only draws attention to the fact that it's not securely mounted on the front of the car, it will NOT keep you from getting a ticket in TX.

Do your lights yourself or have them done by someone locally, it's pretty easy for them to get damaged in transit and depending on who you send them off to it may take longer than you planned for.

Its a panda, the nickname of the car. (keep in mind I am still a teenager so stupid things like this still fly amongst my friends) I took the plate down, I ordered the stillen front mount these pics are from a while ago. For the headlights- I wanted to get some ironmans only place ive heard of that does those so far is 180 customs in brookland NY.

Car looks great, I agree with everyone else needs a drop asap. Yea def get the headlights painted to complete the look on the car.

PS. Not trying to put nobody on the spot but if you want to be "Headache free" stay away from 180 customs their customer service is -0. I already dealed with them and my headlights spend more time on a fedex truck than on my car. There're other vendors in the forum that do headlight work examp. Danny at limited Ed. In the end chose wisely before sending yours headlights out. GL

Overall, I like it. Are those 285's on the back?? I say mild drop for sure should be next, and call me crazy but IMO, all blacked out wheels need a pin stripe(white in your case ) to make them "pop" Check out the vossen site to see how good a little pin stripe can look. Like others said, black roof would complete the panda theme....

I completely agree with the black roof, I was actually considering CF hood black roof CF trunk but im really not sure. And no there 265's on the back. Do you think most paint/body shops can do the roof? I also was looking at the CF roof cap, buts its 800 bucks, Ill probably get a quote on painting my roof and then decide from there. I really like my rims how they are, sorry :P
Thanks again for all the opinions guys, appreciate it.

A good body shop. probably do the roof for a couple hundred, with the sun roof , there's not that much surface area to prep and paint

Coming along nicely. I agree with everyone else, needs a black roof. Maybe black headlights and rear valence too. Drop is a must! What brand and size are those wheels?
