Default Bat's overlays, Painted doorhandles

Springs not yet installed. Looking to get the wheels powdercoated to a dark gunmetal sometime in the near future.

Let me know what you think...

you're car looks great!

i was hoping you could help me with some questions...
are those headlight overlays the lighter or darker overlays? do you notice any decrease in light intensity? and last question is do you notice any difference in color of the light output?

your car looks great man. I am the other guy with the track z and the nismo kit here in town. I have yet to see your car in person though. I left you my number in the pm that I sent you so we could maybe meet up one day and have some lunch or whatever. If you want me to I will install your springs or I will help you if you would rather in my garage. I have all the tools you will need. Just let me know.

Hey, sorry for the late reply but I hope I have some answers for you.

The light output is decreased a little, not by much but it is noticeable to someone who would have driven the car. Its not dangerous by any means, if I had to compare it to something, I'de say its like driving a car with normal headlights... The blue light output color is lost with the overlays which sucks, but I guess that's the price you pay.

I'll work on the close up pictures here pretty soon.

You're right, the gunmetal looks amazing, I thought it would. I think I might know where my next check is going...

Thanks for the compliments all.

hi aggiez
your car looks awesome! blackout rocks!

ive done the same to my car, but a coupla steps further because i wanted NO CHROME to conflict with my bronze volks- as in all lenses are smoked and all emblems blacked or removed, exhaust is blacked too. just need to get Bat's headlight overlays and i'm done.

so i think you're car is off the hook! if you're going to stay with the blk/chrome colorway in addition to gunmetal rims may i suggest considering blk rims with polished chrome lips. i see that combo on black carrera turbos around here and it's undeniably sinister.

thanks! lets see more pix please!!!
