I like the shit outta that! Hahahaaa!

Do what you like; it looks good to my eye either way. I think it will get more positive attention with them than without. If you're doing the show car thing (and it seems you are) then you need some things that will catch the eye without being outright ugly. Like... the black scoop, the pinstripe, and the fender slashes. I think it all looks good together.

my .05

if you keep them, I like it better with the pin stripe on one side.

one pinstripe does look better, If you decide to leave it, and it don't look bad at all.

Like I said I am going to leave them on until at least I put the new rims on to see how everything looks together....I will however take the front pinstripes off on the black stripes.....I agree it does look better with the one pinstripe instead of 2......

Question for ya. Sorry of it was discussed earlier, But I have built several bagged trucks in the past and I noticed you only have one compressor. How long does it take that to fill up enough to raise the car? Do you have plans for a second?

It probably takes with a completely empty tank about 10 mins.....I have it set to cut on at 145PSI and cut off at 175PSI.....but it usually stays in that range with no problems unless I am just raising and lowering the car over and over again....and yes I do plan to do another compressor....I don't drive the car enough right now to worry about it....I just take it to shows and thats it....I want to get it done for the most part right now so at least I can get it to alot of the major shows this year......since last year I didn't get to do anything with the car as it was in the shop the whole time but it will definately be worth it when everything is all said and done....This car has gone through A SHIT LOAD of changes this past year.....

Update.....Got a package yesterday from UPS......But before they are installed I have to do some modifying in order for them to fit......

They are the 2010-2013 Roush Side Splitters....They should look sick once they are on the car......

Usually, painting everything under the hood is not my thang.... but damn. Your car looks good. Unique, too. Your attention to detail is fantastic.
