Looks good. Love the rims, headlights and painted grille but I'm not feeling the single tip exhaust.

Have you looked into some chromed bulbs for the rear directionals?

hey thanks a lot man, yea the exhaust is a can but i got it a few years ago from stillen and it ran me $500 back for just the muffler..id love to change it to a mossy or a cattman dual tip catback system but that will have to wait for now

also i havent really looked at any chromed bulbs..will that really change the look of the lights that much?

thanks a lot guys..i appreciate all the feedback..the rims are 18's but they look like 17's since they have the silver lip..im deciding on either h-tech or progress springs..but i will most likely go with the h-techs since they drop it more in the front than the back

With chromed bulbs, you won't see that amber color through the clear lens. I think it makes the tails look a whole lot better. They still blink amber but look better when they're not.

hmm yea i might get some silver spray paint and paint the bulbs silver maybe that will work...as for blacking out the window trim..i thought about it but i cant find that black out tape anywhere around here..i was going to spray paint it black but putting tape and newspaper around the entire car just so the paint doesnt get anywhere seems like a big hassle..maybe later if i find the black out tape i ll do it..thanks for the idea though

Don't paint it. It comes off quite easily. Try Auto Zone for Trim Brite Blackout tape. (I'm sure other places have it too) About $5 a roll. That's what I used.

Nice rims...I'm considering getting those style rims (black with silver lip), but I'm having doubts about what the rims will look like on my Gray Lustre Max.
