Did I overdo it?
 
I've been working on my sunfire gt lately, ordered a lot of exterior mods. I purchased the car for $225 but it needs a new engine and air bags so I couldnt pass it up for my project car.

Either way I wanted to know if you guys think its looking overdone with the body kit being too agressive or what not. Doesnt look much like a sunfire anymore...

Before: (after my brother took my gt rims for his car)

After I mounted the front bumper, fenders and hood...now the engine is out so its all removed again.

Ricey or not.. It fits well. A lot of kits I have seen have to be hacked and slashed to fit correctly. Not bad..

random-strike actually its a ground hog catcher modified onto my bumper. You see here in my home town in michigan we have quite the ground hog problem. I figured a turbocharged sunfire could take care of them :)

I do plan on mounting a large intercooler in the gap, thats part of why I chose this bumper. The other was is that everyone has the streetfire kit so I wanted to be different.

Everyone has their own term for rice I suppose, I've always considered it mainly APC products and tons of stickers for accessories that you dont have on the car.

The car will be graphite metallic when its done. I'm using the dodge color thats on the dakota pickups as well as the dode vipers, looks real sleek in my opinion.
