I think you did a great job on both your mods. I do like the cf headlight funnel. Plus if you keep your Top Fuel intake, that's cf too. I wouldn't expect big numbers like most people would like to see, but every little bit counts.

Jesus your car looks freaking nuts!!! Like it should be in a Super GT race or something. Great job! Btw what front lip is that, I'm guessing it's custom made based on all the custom work you've already put into your ride.

I think it's a lip and then those splitters mounted underneath.
