    Came in expecting actual shave content Clearly, I'm an idiot.

    Looks good man Only thing I dislike is the red smiley, but that's really just personal preference. Looks good regardless

    Very nice
    A molded front lip would really set it off
    Replica wheels are like fake boobs. They look good on the outside, but when it comes to quality, Nothing beats the real thing.

    I think you did it just right. Too much is too much. Shaving just to shave is stupid. Removing all lines makes the car look like a big ugly ball.

    I'll say it again... I'm really digging the car
