Like the man said, menacing! That thing looks cool. It's not something I would do. But it's something I definitely like. I didn't even know that they made blackouts for turn signals. LoL. I agree with everyone else, headlight mod or black halos will really bring it together.

The silver lip does a ton for that car in my not so humble opinion.

I like the black without the polished lip. I'm thinking to have mine powdercoated all black. I think it looks better. The polished lip kind of makes it look like whitewall tires.

One last thing though, do the headlight mod, and paint the chrome black. That'll complete the package.

I agree with the polished lip idea to break it up ever so slightly. The other thing i thought about was how two florida guys have ALL BLACK cars, How does that florida sunshine treat ya???
