That looks awesome. I wasn't a fan of the RTR chin spoiler but every time I see it with he splitter I think it looks fantastic.

P.S. you must have a big garage.

How is the matte finish on the SS Wheels holding up? I've been looking at these wheels recently and have noticed that the matte finish is not guaranteed (on the cruizinconepts website anyway). Are chips, dirt, etc more of an issue on this finish than any other finish? Thanks!!!!

hahaha well these started life out as chrome but i wanted flat black....so i used a drill and a steel brush to blast them down to bare medal...then i scuffed them up and sanded them with a medium grit scuff brush and then i used flat black bbq paint and what u see is the final product...came out great imo and i never have to worry about scuffs cuz all i have to do is get cardboard to put between the tires and rim give them a light sanding and respray if ever they need....i just did a buddies aftermarket saleen extreme wheels and they came out pretty badazzzz....here is a pic of them when i was done...

still wet after final coat...

Looks awesome! I was thinking of getting the Cobra R hood for my '12. What is the difference in weight between the stock aluminum hood and the fiberglass cervini one?
