Kinda made a couple changes to the car, thought I'd share. I just installed fog lights yesterday and a stillen spoiler last week.

I'm going to do a little photo shoot with the car soon once it stops raining.

You are? Lol I'm not any more. I plastidipped them, but if I can't get them powder coated either silver or gunmetal anytime soon I may just sell the wheels and go back to the stock 17''s.

It looks like u changed your directionals.. If so, what size did u use? I've been trying to swap the amber for chrome ones but the size I ordered didnt fit.. I referenced the size from the manual but no luck.

I assume you're talking about the headlights. they are still the stock headlights, all I did was get some vinyl, cut it in the shape of the amber piece, spray painted to color match it (I found some K50 Duplicolor spray) and just stuck it on there. I had it for about a year, but I keep forgetting to remove the light inside there so it looks kinda weird when it shines through the vinyl.

Don't sell the Z wheels. They look dope on the car. and it definitely gave your car a unique character, one of my favs actually. Just get them powdercoated a nice color or even color match it.

wow thanks man :gapteeth:

Im thinking of powdercoating them back to stock silver or a little darker. I bought them all banged up, but I've sinced wet sanded them and just to buy some time I plastidipped them. The black isn't really doing it for me personally only because I feel it takes away from the wheels unique look.

Oh I know that feeling too well!! haha my opinion as far as the wheels go is to wait, powdercoat them when you can, but don't sell em, I'm with Sanosuke on this one! :dblthumb:
