Your paint job looks great in the pictures.


Time to black out the headlights, door handles, emblems, and center caps on the wheels.

the exhaust was a SRS but the tips where horrid so i cut them and put ones i liked on. might be cheap but almost a year later and still sounds amazing and still no cracks in the welds. with the test pipes it really brought the exhaust to life and still isnt extremely loud. amazingly still has the Z sound. just much louder.

dono about the headlights or the emblems. when i painted the wheels i also did the calipers in a silver to offset the wheels a little and i think it looks great with a little silver accents aswell as the center caps. and the housing of the headlights i took apart and blacked out but dont wanna go near my headlights with niteshade or any films. plus the 12k bulbs are already dimmer then my factory so i wouldnt want it much darker. but the handles i deff wanna do. i hear its a pain in the ***

well i thought about wheels a while back and decided that the looks of the car was second hand to the feel and performance. thus why i painted the wheels and tinted the headlights/tailights as apposed to just saving for a nice lip or real nice wheels. i figure once i do most the stuff i plan on doing to the motor and suspension is a little more on a friendly competition side not a race car. but i do some solo II events and plan on tracking the car. then ill save for some nice wheels and maybe a lip or the V-2 front bumber and keep the stockers for some slicks? just a thought

hes a wild one but he listens....sometimes.

i like the tailights. the pictures make them look almost black but really there just a dark red BUT if i could get some 06^ tailights w the leds i would deff go for it. and thats not film thats niteshade.
