Looks cool, though the bright taillights seem to stand out a bit too much...why not put overlays on those as well? Loving the 'stash

The headlights look really nice! What overlays are they? Has it taken away much from the lights at night?

the overlays are not from bat. They are Lamin-X Light Protection in SMOKE color for the front and rear headlights. Not only does it protect the lights but it looks sick. The rear tailights just have to reverse light smoked out. I feel like everyone blacks out their cars and I want mine to be different. I haven't seen this combination on anyones black coupe yet so Im happy i beat everyone to the punch I may be painting a very thin "time attack" red stripe around the outside of the rims. Not sure yet though because I like the way it looks now. The headlights and tail lights were done by a close friend of mine on Long Island. If anyone would like the place or prices let me know I can send you a business card or his phone number. He also tinted my windows. Im really glad everyone likes it so far.

ALSO i have eibach lowering springs and artisan dual exhuast but I am waiting until after the winter to have them installed.

There is not a big noticable difference on light output but it definately takes away some of the light. I haven't put in 6000k HID yet but will do so shortly. I can take some night shots with the stock headlights if you guys want? just let me know

hmm, I've never been a fan of tinting headlights.. 2 me, it just seems counter productive, especially when adding HID lights.. so its a no go regarding functionality for the headlights, but for looks.. not too shabby!

now the tails.... I've never liked that look. The red on our cars is too bright, the darkened circle just looks funky to me... but I give two thumbs up for being original!

ummm nope, I have bluebatmobile GTR cutout overlays... It doesn't cover the low beams or the highbeams, just the turn signal and the running/parking light.

Also, I have matte black overlays which are not see through so if they covered the low beam or high beam, I wouldn't have headlights

it sucks that so many people have those wheels, but ive been looking at them for like a month and think i may have to get them. where did you find them for $630. the lowest ive seen is $700 on ebay

also +1 on where did you get tires( question open to anyone)
