Thanks for the compliments guys!!! That grille just finishes my car appearance wise, just need to cut a 1/4 coil off my front Eibach's to get it a little lower and I'm set!

The wheels are Privat Profil 18x9.5's all around. And I have plenty more pics....

Thanks, I'm still unsure how the headlight painting would look, so far I'm content with the stock lights, I don't like the halo's so those are out of the question.

I wish I had someone local that had the painted lights I can try them on first

Never been a fan of the rear black-outs, but VERY nice ride! Love the custom plates too!

your lights look nice and clean, painting them is a snap, only take a couple hours when taking your time. you'll love the way it cleans up the front end, i would definately consider doing it. i think it would match your orange/black theme well, and give it a unique look. i kinda agree about the halos. i painted my stock lights, but they are hazy, halos are cheaper than new OEM's to paint, so i might try some black halos. you can see some before and after pics of mine when i did my lights on my website in the sig. keep in mind my lights are kinda hazy, it would look even better on yours. nice ride

Thanks again guys!!

abadss - I will try to pull myself to do it I'm just nervous about sticking my only headlights in the oven, pulling them apart, etc. What color do most people paint them, silver or black? I would think black would go best with mine don't you think?
