Here's a quick pic of my latest photoshop idea; just an outline spear on the side of the hood cowl and Blue Angel on the side for starters. Abygale suggested the blued-out bowtie with yellow-gold outline to match my rims which I think was a great idea. Have to figure out what I'm going to do with the back.

Of course I'll get it lowered too once I get the Pedder's Extreme Xa Street kit which includes their coilovers; they just have to make some more parts so I can buy it lol.
That looks great..I am so freaking anal i worry about how much the paint etc will weigh..lol...I like those rims on your ride also

Hey SnS
LOL I know how you feel. Yesterday when I was at Hurst getting the shifter installed they had optional shift knobs and when I saw they weighed .6 lbs I was thinking "damn, over half a pound?" hehehe. Thanks, the rims turned out exactly how I had imagined them...sooo happy with the work Jim at Nutek did for me!

It's an illusion; the depth of the rim does it because the spokes are inset instead of on the front like the stock rims. Go to this link and you'll see it next to other cars:
