You're getting mixed reviews because it looks like you're trying to black out the car with head light tints and window tints then you put these brash blue accents on it.

Looks good....I just prefer the stock stripes of the GT/CS being based on the originals.

Looks good but I would have went with matte black or grey.

BS! Looks great! Different too which makes it stand out! Personally I'd went with red if I had gotten a black car, but then I'd hear that I should have went with silver, white, etc... As it is I'm going black c stripes and 12" lemans on race red, prob get that it's too much but who cares! lol I think that blue pops and it's tastefully done, not overkill!

If it has blue inserts in the seats, maybe. Otherwise, no way, no way, no way.

The "GTCS" on the seat backs is embroidered in blue.

I think these shady characters are looking to jack your car dude.


Paint the calipers but the leave the wheels alone. If it were me, I'd probably do red or swap them out for chrome/polished pieces.
