Default What should my next appearance mods be?
Im trying to get a theme going but i just cant decide. I know ill be eventually getting an slp ss grille. I was thinking putting black corners and black headlights, or clear corners and remove the black tails (or leave them on). What do you guys think it needs?

flat black 35th anniversary stripes, smoked corners, whistlered headlights, drop, !molding, !emblems and youd be golden. if i had a black car thats how id roll

edit: blackout the rear side markers and third brake light too, and of course a slp grill and maybe some corsa tips

Those are some good ideas, the flat black stripe sounds sick. Maybe a flat black manta

ya the front clips on these things stick out quite a bit...i think it would really add some serious attitude to a really clean SS though!

CME exhaust, deep dish wheels and a drop, and I would probably leave it at that.

Actually probably just the air dam under the car, not the bumper itself. Though I guess it is possible, I'm at stock height and have come close to scraping the bumper before.

The paint is actually missing from the front bumper

EDIT: just on the bottom where you cant really see unless you look.

That would be sweet, but i think im leaning more towards black corners, whistler mod, and c5 z06 rims. I will lower it eventually i suppose.
