New wheels and lights!

[yttimhcs2009]

I got my old chrome wheels stripped and powdercoated gloss black yesterday. 20x9 all the way around & lowered on Eibachs. Still not low enough for my taste but it'll do until I can save up for coils.
Tell me what you think and any ideas you guys have! Pos/neg criticism welcome

warning...crappy iphone pics, car somewhat dirty, terrible light outside. Getting it detailed and waxed before I take legit pictures, lucky my sister is a photographer so I can get some pretty cool shots later for freeeeeee






The wheels before lol

Get coils and sell me your springs

too much black going on for my taste but it looks way better than the chrome thats forsure!

[SanoSuKe]

definitely looks better than the chrome. Coils + stillen front fascia and you're golden.

Black > Chrome not bad but a bit too black for my taste

[Mr.HacKeR]

[xshinnyshinx]

yea I knew the all black look doesn't fly for some people but I like it! I have an extra set of tails I might throw back on to see how the red looks.

Looks good, just installed my lights in today will post pics soon. Also, I'm going with the black theme as well.

haha thanks, thats basically what im shooting for. Hopefully coils will help out soon also



now here's a thought I had, and I need all of your opinions...

...orange calipers? lots of guys have red, but ive always like black/orange and I think might contrast well?

or should I just leave them how they are and call it a day lol

Does either of your lights fog up real bad? I installed mine on Sunday and they were ok but Monday the driver side light was fogged up in the inside bad.

They've fogged up a few times but not much. It doesn't get very cold in Texas obviously. Whenever they did I just sat for a few minutes with my low and high beams on, the heat from the lights cleared it up pretty quick.

They come with a slit cut into the rubber seal that the wiring goes through, make sure you pop the rubber grommet thats on the wiring harness into that slit and it'll seal everything up better. Not sure how to explain it better than that.

I think one of my lights is defective. I contacted the dealer to see if they will send me another one. How do you post photos on here?

[yttimhcs2009]

what exactly do you think is defective. upload photos to photobucket then copy and paste the IMG code it gives you

[Jerseyboi352]

I dont think its sealed properly. Thanks for telling me how to upload pics

I saw go for the orange. It will make the car pop even more!!!

Check the rubber seals that wires go through into the headlight housing, it probably has a slit cut into that they use to feed the wires through. Betcha thats your problem, nothing some tape/glue can't fix

I think im going to end up doing it here in a few weeks
