I like the first one. The second one is nice too, but the first one had that "something" that caught me when it popped up on my screen, unlike the second one.

Hey Lance, I couldn't remember if you stated it before, but is your CF hood functional or not?

It's not.I went with quality over function.Also I could never get ahold of the company that makes it in CF.

i plan to get rims over the summer but I'm going to wait until I need new tires anyway to save money.. and I'm not crazy about making replica cars...
