yeah it does the way the b-pillar is black. Car looks very nice and it looks like its not an all show no go type car either. Really is a one of a kind car. That should be the car on the top of the homepage.

That's Steve84GS's car. He posts alot on Mazspeed forum.

I love his hood, and the paint. He has a stock S5 Turbo with stock S5 ECU.

It looks real nice.

No, the paint scheme resembles the 1st gen eclipse/talons.

rims look a narrow and the tires ar too low profile for the wide body kit.

Looks good otherwise. I really like the red and black paint scheme.

Car looks great....

Wheels definatly need to be wider...and I never found a 2 tone paint job I liked...

Does he pass emisions? I see the stock silinoids in place...

All in all the car is nice and he looks like he has alot of work in her.....Now all he needs is a :

Haltech
To4/ 60-1 - and all the supports
TII tranny

THEN it will run as nice as it looks

Great pics bye the way!
