Its a sport i believe. 1st thing i'm going to do it is remove the rear spoiler and put a more conservative one on. Bit high and not really my thing.

Here's a really small pic!!

Damn dude...I love it. It looks smooth as silk in the first picture, which means I also love your digital camera. Welcome to the boards!

that is very nice and clean looking! now you just need to hook up with some M-tech mirrors to complete the package (sorta surprised it doesn't have them). that rear spoiler was higher/larger than i thought it was!
