people like shinny things, so wash, polish, wax! maybe a underbody neon kit would attract some more attention as well. also your hood looks sweet!

Looks good and aggressive, just ditch the Altezzas and HUGE wing. Get some 18" wheels, and it would look clean

zaino the crap out of it (Z1 and Z2), then use some Z6 in between coats. The day of the show when it's parked, go back over it with more Z6. Blam. It will glow.

And ditch the wing, please

hehe, what i dont like about the wing is the huge side things that hold the actual wing in place(or whatever they do), they are just too big. so you might really wanna take the wing off or get a different one that looks a lil more modest.
the altezzas stand out too much,thats the problem with em the original lights will probably look pretty nice with the black.

my two C.ent.s

either put your stock taillights back on...or get cf altezzas..trust me..would looka whole lot better. keep the wing on there if you like it...you won't loose points for it...if your judge likes it or if he's nice..he'll give you pts for it. and make sure your car is CLEAN>.and i mean CLEAN!! inside as well...vaccum it and make sure your dash is dust free. clean the vents and everything..clean everything under the hood/door jams/wheel wells/trunk etc etc etc. btw, would be a good idea to clean everything the day before the show, not now..or it'd just get dirty again, lol
