Damn that looks tough. I think the scoop suits it nicely. Gives a hint of what's underneath.
If I was you, I'd relocate the middle lights (high beams?) and make CAIs out of them. The pods seem to be right behind them.

thats the way mate it may be a pain in the ass at times but its all worth it in the end. me and a mate just finished of a turbo conversion on his v6 vk calais, lots of tacking and test fitting and grinding.

what the main purpose of this car? burnouts? cruising? drags? or is it just a all the above?
