new pics of the golden black max
You have a good ride going so far, keep it up.
but instead of painting your hood black, save your money and get your car repainted a nice mild to dark grey would look amazing with your blacked out setup, then get a CF hood

oh hey, it's shocker dude. 
pass on the hood painting, i'd get rid of the stickers but whatever.
the main thing... plleeaasseee don't put HIDs in '95-96 housings. Get some clear housings and do a retrofit. please.

The stickers are fine, as long as you don't mind looking like a high schooler (not that there's anything wrong with that).
Speaking of high school, here is my opinion in the form of a math equation:
(Classy + sharp) > [(Funny + cool) * immature]

Take off the stickers and get a CF hood, and fix the muffler, but you already mentioned that. All in all I like it a lot besides that the black goes well with everything else. Keep it up.

Take the shockers off the doors, only have the shocker sticker on the back. I think the color scheme is awesome. Dont paint the hood, and carbon fiber isnt black so that wont match. Get a black stillen kit.
and pic a brighter day to take pics

- Paint job before you do anything to or w/ a hood.
- Black lip kit all around
- I hate to say it but put them black pin strips back on. If not add some type of kool graphic art in black on. Get creative, design smaller versions of that, 2 in the pink, 1 in the ____ to create something that actually looks good.
- Have fun & good luck w/ the mods

Seems odd to me. First, I have 5% all around, looks nice, but only in the rear!!! I think you went to dark. The wheels are too dark as well, looks like years of caked on brake dust!!!!!! Dunno, maybe if you got the black headlights it would look better.
yea i did spray paint the rims and i used black out paint for the tails. car is dropped on cut springs.. ride is bumpy but not bumpy enough to make me regret it. when time is right maybe spring im taking it to aamco for a touch up paint job. and yes i am in high school 17 yrs old soon to be 18 so shocker stays until i mature up some more.. overall thanks for the compliments and suggestions.. liking this forum so far. oh and when i put on exhaust and y pipe and other lil bolt on goodies.. ill take videos to share.. and lastly when i went to the track. my freind had to drive my car becuase i was not 18 and he ran a 16.7 stock.. but it was still good enough to beat my other freinds 03 gt with bolt ons both times because he ran a 16.8. overall this car is a ton of joy and a head turner for good and bad reasons. lol.
16.7? Sounds like someone either can't drive to save their life or you have some major maintenance that needs taken care of.
car looks ghetto for some reason maybe because i'm not a fan of those black painted tail lights especially with your color car...but i'm sure your taste will change as you get older...i went thru the same phase 
definitely don't paint the hood man lol as for those shocker stickers, maybe just one is fine...don't need one for every side of your car.
but i know how it is at that age...when i was in high school my friend got a 96 accord and we used paint to "fix" up his ride too you're lucky to have a car at that age so it's cool...i didn't get mine until 18 yo =(

I'm not sure why we are all telling our age...but...I'm 18 as well.
I went through the "paint" phase as well like someone else said. For some people it isn't a phase though so I wont say "you grow out of it". I think the painting and tinting thing is over done and ghetto looking. Its a way to be different the cheapest, most noticeable, and most convenient way you can, in my opinion...it takes all the class out of the car. looks like a kids car. There is a white jetta around here and the guy painted the trunk and hood black and me and my friends all had a good laugh about it...it looked like ****.
I like the wheels though, not for their color, just because of the design.

the car does look as much "ghetto" as it is just unGodly tacky. But meh....it's your car right? I'm not going to comment on the obvious because you've already admitted to what that is...So what I will say is that the black on your car is "too black" based on the color that your car already is, you need to go easy on it. Get some body work done because it looks as though you had some 5th graders come and mangle up the body a bit, and fingerpaint the wheels and tails.....Also painting the hood is again not going to be "ghetto" just another bad and tacky decision on your part, so save that money and get the body fixed or invest in some LED bulbs so that people can see you thru all that black paint on your tails...
