Hahaha ended up coming out looking like ISHHHHHH... but oh well. I might just buy a new stock one or try to sand it down and repaint it some other color. I painted it silver and it looks just so out of place.

Anyone have a stock one laying around by chance?

Also... don't know why but my dash and stuff looks blue... it's really black though I swear. Haha.

Default If done right, it looks good.

Mine is painted silver and goes nicely with the S4 aluminum trim.

Default That's true.... I bet it would look good if I had silver trim.

I have a silver boost gauge, shift ****, and pedals but I don't think that it's enough. I dunooooooo.

Default Psh... YOU look like screen door mesh.

Hahahaha no I know what you mean... for some reason that pic looks like it. It's actually just like the normal mesh in car body kits... came with the rieger kit (same in front and rear) I think just in that pic it looks wierd.

Default Before you toss it ,try black paint or carbon fiber sheet ...

you might as well experiment . Either carbon fiber look decal overlay or if you are daring REAL carbon fiber and then resin . Its worth a shot.
