Wow, if he was smart enough he would just put on the originals and saved him some time. IMO the original orange looks better than the dark yellow that the DCs are...

The painted DCs look a lot better. The stock orange is really blah.

first of all no one is talking about tails... and second hes being original , a concept you may not understand, which is one of the top key factors of having an all around nicely modded street car. theres chicks in my neiborhood with stock maximas and clear bumbper lights , everyone does it and hes tired of his looking exactly like everybody elses car. so i guess what im trying to say is if all your guna do is flame his work then your a little

Excellent idea on this one. Looks much better than stock, tenfold. What kind of paint did you use. What about using a color close to body color. What if you used black on a black car? Hmmm... Way to get ideas rolling. Good job.
