im thinking about one of the silver nose emblems for it off ebay. im powdercoating a set of rims, but they are 16" and until i can afford 17" ZR1s, the 16"s will have to work. then i plan on silver hockey stripes.
as for the headlights, yes they need to be wet sanded. i was in a hurry to get to a graduation party so i just put them back in. and i drove home around 11 pm, and i could see fine. they are a little purple in the sunlight, though.
i think i put about 5 coats on everything. they were very light coats though.

thanks for the compliments.

how much are u gonna spend powdercoating ur wheels. i had mine for 200, which is cheap but also about a third of the price of new wheels.

u should just paint ur wheels urself, save some money.

but sounds like ur on track, car should look awesome shortly

Well I would never have sprayed my headlights as they suck enough as is. If you say you could see well enough then that's good.

Wow you paid $200 to have your rims powdercoated??? I just got mine back today and I paid $15 a rim (a good friend of my dad's has his own HUGE powder coating company) I just got some Zr1's powdercoated white...
