The hood needs something.
+1

Custom hood, I think, would solve all your problems!!!
I agree... a hood scoop goes a long way towards adding attitude!

Steeda always looks good in silver, just a few decals, mirror covers and a steeda wing.

My thoughts...
You are kind of mixing the theme a little. I like the chrome wheels on a silver car but they don't mix well with black stripes IMO. From my sig, I obviously like silver and I think my car looks pretty aggressive. I just think you need to decide between silver and chrome (my choice) or silver and black (also a good choice) If you stay with the stripes, I agree that you might consider black wheels w/ chrome lip. It will also make a huge difference when you paint the chin spoiler. The spoiler and scoop made all the difference on my car.

Overall, great car, just pick silver and chrome or silver and black...

I like a lot of your mods. Some might call me crazy, but I might ditch the wheels in favor of some deep dished wheels. That will give it a more aggressive stance. A different style hood would be sweet also.

I think your car looks tight...The unpainted (matte) chin spoiler seems out of place on your car. If it was painted to match your car, I think it would be more noticable and give your front end a lowered appearance for a more aggresive look.
I'm with Senior on this one, once the chin spoiler and mirrors are painted body color it will look badass. If you want an even more aggressive look, I'd look into an aftermarket hood. Doesn't get too much badder than the Trufiber GTS-2, or even one of the Cervini's hoods with the overbite.

I think your car would look nice with the spoiler and window louvers painted black. JMO.

Like the Bullit grill.

Thats exactly what I was thinking, and maybe some black rims, not really feeling the grill either.

It looks great as is, but I think the front end is missing a little something, idk, maybe paint the chin spoiler, and the mirrors to start, get a hood scoope to try and I think all that will make a big difference. Then go from there
