Looks cool. I hope I'm not being a jerk by saying this, but I don't think that lower grill looks finished. Is that temporary? It looks out of place on the front.

Keep posting pics!

I agree, the metal mesh has got to go... that, or paint it black. It makes it look cheap for some reason.

What are your plans for finished product? More carbon fiber accents would help with the details... also, a nice candy finish would make the build look fantastic. What are the wheel/tire sizes?
