I dig it man, props for the PS work

love it... duno about the headlights thou.

love the s1 stick thou!

You might have some trouble with that 'DUNK' one ha ha ha ha I can honestly say yours does look the best. Not only in looks but it had the most details that I noticed. I do like the front end on the 1st one but it looks a little off

haha did anyone go to the eclipse guys photobucket?
hahahahaha

^^ nah.. but feel free to post

looks good not bad at all...... maybe a little more work on the cf hood looks a little out of place to me

Hmm...it looks good so far buddy, there's a few things I would adjust though:

1) In all of the pictures, the passenger side windows seem too clear, like only half of the car got a tint, I would try to darken those up a bit so that the cabbage and tomatoes on the other side aren't so visible.
2) I like the car color, but I think it should be desaturated a little to make it a bit more natural and fitting with the neutral colors of the background scenery.
3) I've never been a fan of the whole Audi Christmas-LED headlight thing...it's like seeing BMW Halo's on a Civic...it doesn't seem right, to me anyways. I'd keep the stockers and maybe turn the lights on for effect. Or you can apply a tint over them and tag the tail lights as well.
4) I'd clean up the grill a bit...take out the center "Diamond Star" triangle shaped thing and just make it like a CTR grill, clean black mesh.
5) Darken the dashboard color to a darker grey
6) The hood line seems a little jaggy, not sure what could fix it
7) A side mount exhaust near the rear wheel well would be cool if at all possible?

I love the job you did with the rims, the Bride racing seats, and S1 sticker for a nice touch of personality, good stuff!

holy hell! good ideas! i've done basically all of em to you

i did keep the R8 headlights. just because i kinda like em and nobody has done it on the chops the hood, i've tried to fix but nothing so far

For sure brotha, I'm happy you liked my suggestions. I can't wait to see the final product .

The headlights are cool, part of it is that I have only seen them in real life once and I'm not used to it yet, definitely huge points for originality though.

After closer inspection...the hood looks funky because of the directions of the CF hood texture lines..What would probably fix it is if you just drew a thin black outline around the front of the hood to define it better. That would get rid of the jaggies and possibly help it look cleaner.
