Painting the inside of the headlights (generally black).

If this car does not swing your opinion, nothing will.

well,i tried the whistler mod today and if i was a patient man then it would have came out way better than it did,i'll get pics up asap.instead of using black i used a dark blue and with a couple of coats it's the color came out closer to nbm than i thought it would,but i plan on finding some nicer headlights than the ones i have and do those the correct way,if anybody has some that's in great condition that the want to get rid of let me know.

Well, I see my car has already made an appearance in this thread

Thanks for the compliments guys, it's really awesome to know your car is so highly thought of especially when it's not even finished !

Here's a couple of same car comparisons though:






and older pics:





Personally, I LOVED the Halos in pics (even my own pics) but HATED THE **** OUT OF THEM in person...

I am SERIOUSLY considering these though:



Thanks again for all the compliments guys !!!
