Evaporate, I first saw pics of your car and that sold me on getting Black Classics for my car as well. I have a set of full polish FM5's right now, but I don't like how they look on TA's so I'm going to trade a friend for his Black w/Polished Lip Classics.
If either of you can post up some more pics of a side view that'd be greatly appreciated!

Thanks man. Those new LM5s are nice, I've only see them on a 350z - curious what they would look like on an f-body.
