If you had a painted red front lip it would look twice as bad. Its still very clean though

Thanks guys. For the wheels all I did was sand them down with 200 grit sandpaper. Wash them off with 409. Then I bought 2 cans of Rustoleum Gun Metal/Black Metallic Spray Paint from home depot. Lastly, I sprayed the wheels in light coats. If you put too much it will bubble up and you will have to sand it down and redo it. 240sxedup, my dad has a front lip on his and I am trying to get him to sell it to me but he won't b/c he like it so much, but if you know someone with one for sale I would definetly be interested. I however think that it would look really good in black to accent the wheels, but red would look great as well. I also updated my sig.Josh

your car looks awesome! I like the contrast of the rims to that red you have on your ride. I think a CF hood will complete the look.

Your wheels are cool, but I think it is the symetrical flower baskets that really set off the car. imo.
