Sorry to say, but this looks like one of those cars I drive by and start laughing at..
Even worse, you took a beautiful car and made it look ugly.
Well maybe a bit harsh. Some things were added that were/are cool but then other sthat are just so gaudy(that silly spoiler and California Summer Corvettehood vents gotta go man)..
I respect your efforts but too much flash makes people blind..

I suppose this a perfect 10 from a functionality POV.
Aesthetics, I'm not too fond of the rear spoiler and hood. Everything else looks great, and could probably be even better, as Chris suggests. But without looking at it in the flesh it's hard to say.
I have questions, though:
How do you like those Mugen seats? Do you seat lower? How easy is it to install proper harnesses to make use of the seat? Too harsh for street use? Are they easy to re-upholster in leather?
I think they look great and would look even better on a black/black car.

the Mugen S1 seats will lower your seating position by roughly 70-80mm, effectively lowing your car's center of gravity in the process.

i've added two more pics to the gallery -- one of which is a better shot of the polished MF-10's.

I fall on the side that it's a little overboard... but on that note I'm all for individuality. The front bumper looks a little*too* happy for my tastes. Here's some photoshop pics I did to see what cdelena's comments would look like:
IMO the first one looks pretty devilish, almost fanglike which falls into the Luder comments, the 2nd is probably the typical way it would be painted.
Enjoy!
