    You should get a photobucket account then you wouldn't have to post your pics as thumbnails.
    You took the bug deflector off huh?
    You might get inlays or overlays, they look good.
    See how it looks after you get your tint and go from there.

    I have 20% tint and it looks great. It's not too dark but just perfect. Also I agree that inlays would are a great cheap appearnce booster. And the headlight covers do need to go

    I would replace ur front snorkel black grille pieces. Its cheap and looks nice. U can get em in brushed alluminum. I always liked the tinted taillights look. Can't stand the euro crap. Like the wheels. Mine r black too.

    DSTOUT- i got a photobucket account, but i havent taken any pics of my car other than cell phone pictures. so i didnt figure putting the cell pics on photobucket would be worth the hassle. yeah i took it off, but ima paint it and put it back on just to save the lip of my hood, i noticed when i took it off its chipped up a little.
    Whats a good website for inlays and overlays?

    99prixgt- wont remove flaps cuz i live on gravel, and my wheels are slightly offset from factory wheels, so my car would be COVERED with gravel if i went down it without them. and they help with rock chips. i go slow down gravel anyways...havent went over 20 mph yet 10-15mph is average


    Bio248, boosting98 and Nos shottss-ive heard 15% looks killer, but idk if the guy ive been thinking about doing them has 15%. and ive wondered about doing a tint drop on my windshield, my last car had one and i loved it, and it made it look pretty mean too. is it a good or bad idea to do it? oh and the sd air dam with the middle painted black would look wicked! love that idea.

    rocafella2032- wish i could just see every % of tint on my car and see which i like best...lol but yeah head light covers are being thrown away.

    superv6-ive really been thinking about getting a 4 piece grill set also, i hate the looks of the stock honey combs. and the lower air dam openings are just too open and plain, grilles would help that department A LOT i think. i would like to get a polished black grille set, would anyone happen to know of a good brand to get? one that doesnt rust and fade? and on tinting the tails, ive been really wondering about doing that, but i got to get my windows tinted first, i think it'd look goofy with just the tails done haha. thanks for the the compliment on my wheels, i wish they were a little bigger but hey, it still turns heads the way it is black rims FTW

    Thanks for the input guys! Ive been wondering on putting newer gp seats in, getting the sd air dam, tinting the tails and windows, and doing inlays.

    If you have any more ideas or suggestions, feel free to speak up! Thanks guys and gals

    I think the best bet for inlays/overlays and such will be Reflective Concepts they have a link on the forum. I bought my inlays from PFYC.com but I think they are a middleman for Reflectve so I would just go to them instead.

    Not to bring a post back from the dead, but why remove the mudflaps? It's usually the first thing I do to all my vehicles to help keep junk from flying up on the body. I never run a factory offset tire, so they always stick out more than factory.

    Are they just not cool looking to some?

    The mudflaps are fine if you ask me. They dont look to bad at all in that pic. I would take off the white peices along the tops of the windows (cant for the life of me remember what their called). Maybe paint them black or something if they need to stay on. Just think it would look classier without em.
