Haha, all very valid points. To be 100% honest, I wasn't a huge fan of the way the flares sort of ended on the fronts when I first saw them either. The guy who made these (Sam Soto at Stage 3 performance) had plans to develop a front splitter with canards that sort of tie the whole front end together, we just didn't have time before SEMA to develop them. Its still a plan for him, but this look has kind of grown on me now, and I like it. I want to run a front splitter and machine my own canards, but I already have enough trouble with driveways as it is. hahah
As for the neon yellow, dont you DARE make fun of that col....just kidding. Every project I've built over the last few years had neon yellow as a theme, I definitely kicked it up a notch on this one though. haha. Without the stickers, it looks a little less extreme. The stickers are all coming off now that SEMA is over, and will be replaced with much more subtle ones.
Here are some shots of the car with my old stickers on it.
That sounds like a pretty interesting idea. I wonder how those would look. I tend to like all of the canards I have seen and am curious how they would look incorporated with the flares. In all honesty, I don't mind them on your car maybe because I know you went all out and actually went with wheels to fill up the entire space instead of spacers which just bugs me for some reason. Did you guys have to cut the fenders for these ones?
Have you thought about the Neon yellow mirror covers like in your drawing down below? It seems like it is very bottom heavy for lack of a better term with the wheel centers and the emblem and then all black above the belt line. The car looks 20x better with the matte black graphics though I must say haha.
