Great shots, great car. Those wheels are almost the ultimate design for me. I prefer the stock grill but anyway, that is really a Sick R230

Third picture looks awesome.

I'd get some LED front turn signals to get rid of that orange, paint the front side markers, and lower the car a bit more tho. Otherwise, the car looks perfect.
