    Your computer/phone doesn't allow you to click links, much less see the pics in the link. Don't worry, if I can post it, it must be OK lol.

    That actually looks pretty good mostly because it almost looks fairly consistent in the paint. You pull of the sticker very well lol.
    I bet you get pretty high from all that paint eh? Reminds me of my wheel painting days, ever get black boogers? That's why. Would look really good with 01 tail lights.

    I agree, it looks pretty clean there actually. Although I prefer the 98-00 tail lights :D
    But your shiney rims look out of place... gotta paint those flat black!!

    My redo of the front is pretty patchy, hence the shot from this angle. Wanna redo the roof as well. It's not that great up close, but that is an unedited picture. I think I'm gonna leave the wheels gloss black until I paint them something else. Tint is on the list, as well as the 01-02 reverse lights. Gotta redo the turn signals too, after 3 years they aren't red anymore.

    yeah, it looks like the lights had some kind of red treatment at some point. Flat black is definitely hard to do with a rattle can... well it's with gloss also, but you can always wetsand and buff the gloss to get it even.

    Oh, those are rims. I could only see the thumbnail for a minute, and I though it was a tiny tail pipe sticking through the rear bumper.

    Hahaha I remember you saying that a while back, and I was gonna offer a trade, but one of us would have to roll around with no lights for a few days, and without tags I can't risk that. So unless you wanna send me yours first :) And yes I raised the exhaust a bit because there are insane driveways around here, and it would scrape even when I wasn't lowered. It burnt the SHIT outta my bumper, I actually have pics of my "solution". It's from Japan, not sure of the part number, it's for the Levin over there. I'm the third member on this board to have this exhaust lol
    Added: Dec 29, 2011 8:10 PM
    Thank you :) everyone was hating when I said I was gonna change it, but for the most part, it's gotten positive responses. I think anything is better than the blue/purple I had before.

    FYI, that's the first serious new picture I've ever seen of your car. It does look mighty fine, just flatten the steelies real quick! Don't bother taking the wheels off or masking anything, just spray some flat paint on thar
