Love the Darth Vader look! But then I have a BSM that's similar. What's your interior colors?
Have you thought about iCarbon's wet carbon diffuser? It would match up nicely. pge |

Nice. Makes me realize I need to do something with my side markers at least.

That is what I am looking at doing next, with black instead of blue.

I tried to use the left over lamin-x from the third brake light kit but it looked really bad so I decided to try VHT NightShades and it worked beautifully. I then decided to just redo the third brake light with nightshades too and it turned out great! |

>how is it boring? how can I make it not boring?
>They arent great pictures but this car turns heads driving around campus! On the first glance I would turn myselve as well and would acknowledge your great, consequent work. But on the second glance you notice, that the car lost its very spiecial character. You turned an very sexy, cute but powerfull sportive coupe in to "I would like to be an angry/ugly stealth car" what does not fit to this car at all!! All prominent features / details / characteristics which make it so special are lost and depreciated in this black pulp. Look on your own photos -the only interesting one is the one from rear side with the lights on -> the old details (lights) are visible, some contrasts are there and it makes it interesting The only eye-catchers that are left are license plates (I hope you understand what I mean - my english is to poor to express it) Last edited by Mister Cool; 01-29-2011 at 03:23 PM.. |

Yes they are bimmians. I'd recommend using all the adhesive they provide because on part already broke loose that I had to fix.

That's fine if you like it. Just you killed lines of the car by blacking out tail lights. I don't know but maybe I don't like it because of led tail lights, car doesn't look stylish anymore. Just my opinion. I'm missing oem style.

Ps- I wish I didn't have the flash on because it makes the tint look not as dark... The only thing I would recommend is for him to get the white cut outs..

Nice looking car! The taillights look a little weird with the white part blacked out. I'd keep the white part of the taillights how it is, and only tint the red, but that's just me. Oh and black out your roundels and wheels and you'll be set
Ignore the haters, the all black look is pretty awesome.
