    Silver/grey rims. Do it, but 18's atleast.

    Black rims are soooo ****ing retarded, yeah lets spend a bunch of money for my wheels to look crappy and smaller than they really are.

    And different doesn't always look good and you have to realize there's not much aftermarket available for our cars so yea the good looking ones will usually have spo grills, SE etc.. There's ways of contrasting another color without it looking gawdy.

    the color already stands out...the wrap doesn't look horrible...already has the se front/rear...headlights are horrible, grill is cheesy, and the car is begging for a better wheel...

    Yes but the SE looks incomplete because it's unpainted. I think of the same thing when I see black mirrors on let's say a purple or a blue bumper on a pink car.. It's pretty obvious that it should be color matched and then have stock rims kills it for me.. Nothing like seeing a car that obviously the owner has modified but then for w/e reason they decided to not spend the money on rims and yet drop $200 on halos runs are rather cheap and can be sourced almost anywhere.

    I'm not against lips/mirrors/spoilers being painted/wrapped black as long as it's done right....sorry for the "thread jack" OP....moral of the story is....OEM Headlights > Ebay "Spiders"

    Whoa. This kind of escalated some. Haha. The reason I havent completed everything is because of financial stuff. I had a kid and all my time, money and focus is on her right now. Im getting back on my feet slowly but surely. Yes the halos look cheesy, if u read my previous comments u would see that I bought them before I even knew of the retros. Before I got on the forums and saw all the badass stuff people did to their rides. Paint is my last step once I get everything else. My future plans are to get some 18x8.5-9" wheels, bag it, paint the hood, se kit, roof and either the entire trunk lid and spoiler or just the spoiler matte black. Go with retros and then work on the interior. Its all about money and right now I just dont have that much extra after bills and such. I appreciate the criticism and I can take it. Haha. Im not one to get butthurt or whatever over other peoples opinions and such.

    I actually got it from a buddy. A friend of his was parting out his GP and had the entire SE kit brand new still in the box (front lip, side skirts and rear diffuser) and I got it all for $120.
