Yeah I just don't want a shop to rip me off to paint the side skirts.

Chin spoiler +1 Adds alot.

Everyone here agrees pin striping is just odd looking on our body style. Aww just do a super snake stripe with chasers.

Definitely not digging the pin stripe. As stated above, it's not terrible, but doesn't add to the appearance.

I'd definitely get some good tire cleaner/protectant on the tires. With how black your wheels are, the dullness of your tires really sticks out. Don't have to go all shiny, but they need some protectant. I like Black Magic Matte. Not really a mod, but it definitely helps.

Taking a quick look at your car, I'd tint the windows, add the GT500 rear end, and a front splitter/spoiler molded in black (or GT/CS front end with the bottom painted to match the black rocker moldings like the GT500 rear). Agent 47 mirrors would help complete the look.

I have them on mine (dealer added before I purchased). I don't think they really add much or take away anything (they are subtle though). I've seen them done on two-tone paint jobs as well for color accent, look really good in that case. I'll see if I can dig up a few pics.
