Nice looking car, but don't care for the wing. I like the clear turn signals. May I ask where you got those? I live in Germany and technically I am supposed to have clear turn signals. I normally drive with my parking lights on, since the yellow looks unique over here, on a unique car.

Thanks for the tip, athough I don't think I will find any of those cars in a scrapyard over here. I'll be moving back to the states this fall; I'll wait till then. Thanks.

I like the change. As for the wing, if it's fast enough and it helps, then I like that too. If not, I like it better without.

I'm not a fan of the spoiler and I like the original grill better. The clears look nice.

Wing..Yes ! I like alot...
Clears ..Yes ! nice and clean.. I like the earlier grille better on that car. What you need now is to put some GN-TR lower airdams. That car looks like its going to need some air control thru the nose area Plus it "evens" the nose with the sides of the car.Overall that is one beautiful car. The body and top color are awesome.The wheels are way cool too.Everything is sitting right! I do think that the cowl hood is a bit too big. Thats just my opinion. But what matters is what you like.

Louie L, I was thinking of the turbo air dam, are they scarce and what kinda prices do ya see people get for them?
I too think the 86 grill looks better and I still can't decide on the wing  . The hood looks bigger in pictures to me than it really is, it was the same price for a 5" or 6" so I said why not and 6" it was. I kinda wish I went 4" extended so it didn't look so fast. But if I toss some wheelie bars on it along with the chute and wing I think it'll make an overall nice looking package, and at the same time I like it clean with a small hood and just a chute. The front end is actually sitting high since there's no motor. It tucks the fronts with a motor in it and rubbed the front bumper on the ramps sometimes.

I cant really recall what they go for now. But i think Kirbans still sells them. I just noticed something. BTW what brand is the wing ? I vote for the smaller hood.
