Yeah, its a nice way to make a little extra money since I like doing it, lets me get creative sometimes too

Got my mirror bases painted volvo black

Comparison:


Installed (Bad picture but you get the idea):


Ordered parts for custom center caps for my OEM 19"s they will be red and say RAYS in white writing

Black hood struts, motordyne sway bars will be coming soon

Then I will start thinking about integrating LED DRLs into the nismo bumper. Im thinking 3 or 4 of these per side: http://www.v-leds.com/Universal-LED/...viewsTabAnchor

 

Do you have any pictures that show the black painted rear diffuser more closely?

AND better pics of the installed mirror bases? PLEASE

 

None taken, but Ill take pictures of all my gloss black pieces tonight for you

 

Here you go...

Sorry about the dirt...

Also finished my red trunk light yesterday.

 

If you go to DLRs in the bumper will you do a quad projector retro now that you don't have to deal with DLR issues?

 

to me, the projector retrofit isnt worth the material cost or effort,I actually really like the look of reflectors

 

True - no P&P for us

What colour are your Rays? They look nice.

Going to have to get you to make a set of centre caps for me after yours are done!!

 

Thanks, all the gloss black really sets off the IP. Ill be following your footsteps!

 

My rays are duplicolor gunmetal, I just did it to see if I liked the colour. Will probably PC them this winter.

As for the center cap, its just a blank center cap and a sticker. I'll give you the contact info for both companies if you want. Its similar to SD geniuses wife's, just red not blue

 

Thanks its good to hear that my build inspired you to do something similar!

 

FYI - for the custom center caps

Blank (chrome caps) I got mine from here http://www.wesden.com/ part number 550016

Stickers to go on top - http://www.acromann.com/product_info...oducts_id=2348 (Thanks for the link SDGenius)
