Very nice.

Is this what you meant by CSG problems?  it looks like the car body is 
going through the wheel.  And there's also something strange where the 
door panel meets the wheel well.

As a side note, although you are allowed to do as you wish, the front 
wheel wells should cover the top of the wheel completely to minimise 
aerodynamic resistence.
