As I said Work in Progress. Its getting dropped soon along with Slipstreams (flat Black). Plan is to also get a SRT rear lip painted black and maybe the side skirts and moldings painted also.
Like most ppl on here I cant aford to do everything at once.
E-3 pay sux.

Yeah it sucks because you want to do it all at once and it might look like shit until it's finished.
Either way i'm curious to see what you're going to do with it but it looks as though it was designed for an SRT

Yeah, def. get it dropped. It makes anything you do to it look 100x better.

should have got a non carbon fiber and color matched it.. looks like a goatee. hopefully painting the skirts myabe will balance it out.. and maybe some black cuda stripes..

I hear you there .... Military pay isn't the best.. I did my 5 yrs. Looks good, deffentally look at either black out the side skirts, or look for a side skirt that is in CF that will fit. Also I think CBD has a CF rear valance that will help out balancing out the CF to red. Looks like a good start.

personally, a CF front, and the rest of the car pieces painted black will look terrible. if it was all carbon, then maybe, but half carbon/half black just seems REALLY cheap and out of place

It really looks out of place because of the color of your car. I dont belive it will balance out even if you paint ur skirts black actually I think you will make it look worse. Color matching is probably the better choice but now u have a big hole up front so now u need to go turbo and put a front mount there lol. I'm sure u can make it work somehow.

Paint it body color then slam the car!

by flhmfd
even if the car was slammed...it still looks dumb...
just cause its cf doesn't make it nice...the mesh in the cutout ugly, the design is kinda weak and the fact that it doesn't flow with the sides makes it uglier.

ehh
have fun when you lower it
its just a matter of time before you hit something with it and then there goes $200+ down the drain

imo, the best thing you could do now..since you cut out the grill/mesh in the bumper for some reason, is mesh it with aluminum and paint that lip your cars color, and learn your lesson that cf is not always great.
this is just an opinion!

To each his own. In terms of general opinions, I guarantee you after you drop the car it will look "better".

Thats sick. Boost it so you can through a intercooler in there...

Lil' res here. I think that the 03 bumper would look decent like that, but only if you blacked out all of the lower "grill fill" pieces.

yea, to each his own...but I think blacking out the lower grills is a way easy mod and looks better than stock,...at least different
He would have to mask off the fogs, but that's all it takes...scuff up the plastic...mask off... spray with black or flat black... then some clear coat for protection
