Yeah, that color is real nice! Mine is black pearl, which looks nice when the car is clean, but this time of year, it doesn't stay that way for long. But when you buy off the lot, you don't have much say about the color.

Are you on coilovers? For some reason the car doesn't look even in the first couple of pics. Looks pretty nice overall. If you're fishing for suggestions, I'd ditch the eyelids, banner, and grill logos, but to each his own.

Nice car

lookin sweet

i think the only thing i would change would be the headlights and front corners to black that way u can stay with that theme. if u get a chance u need to try to head to columbus some day and check out some of the rides up here and hang out.


also i sprayed my taillights over a year ago with something simular to what u used and i have had no problems with it fading or coming off.
