Get some BA XR8’s and put super lows like mine or ultra lows all round. ;-)
Well I like it, might be biased because it’s mine! haha

As much as i agree with the others about the red strips and FTRs do give it a cleaner look, ^^^ LOL :lol:
I think stockies are well suited to your needs, does look a little GLi spec though, still needs added kit.

I think if you take the spoiler off, you really need to have the body kit and have it nice a low and maybe some nice wheels or at least some widened stockies on the rear.
But all that matters is you like it and are having fun modifying it, I’m sure there’ll be a few more mods to come! ;-)

Devo, nah mate, it has a metallic in it and a slight white pearl that you can't really see, it's kind of a mix between fg blue and the bionic on the ba's
