What's up with the hoodpins? They look pretty trashy, but oh well. The rest of the car looks good, but I'm sure with a front lip and the rear lip painted it'll look good.

What color is it?

lol, w/e dude, i'm sure your just mad cause its faster than your car.

i got Tein SS coilovers on it

and as far as my hoodpins go if you've ever had a hood fly up on you then you'll make SURE it never does it again and all of my friends that have ever had CF hoods, has always made me nervous when i drove it cause they are so light they shake and move etc. so i got some sparco pins for free so hey why not. although they dont look as great as they could, it was my first install and it'll look better when i restore the CF hood
