I don't know, I kind of like the way the fender flares look. The nose is, well they tried too hard to make it "flow" and failed, and the rear end might have been nice if they had not put the wing on it, and had not put the stupid sticker on it.

Old school.....
You realize that air to water intercoolers are far more efficient than our air to air units right? They can cool to far lower temps, and work no mater what speed you are moving, even at idle.
I would kill to switch over to a A/W system, but man its $$$$ as ****! You figure with the electric lift pump(water)at a good 500 bucks, the supplemental tank for extra water at another $300, the intercooler and all the pipes and fittings(AN6) say... $1000, last you will want to toss a 3 core aluminum radiator in there with aluminum caps to keep the higher pressure in.
