Once you go black, you never go back (56K your've been warned)
 

So lately I've been trying to do alot of the cheaper mods. While researching the other stuff I want.

Here's the car before:

So the last two weeks I've de-badged the car. Took off the side molding, and put tint on the car (20%).

But that wasn't enough I was really liking how the dark tint looked on my Athens Blue. So I wanted more black, thats when I decided I wanted to paint my sidemarkers and grill black.

Next up is my headlights so far everything has gone really smoothly.
Thanks to some really good DIY threads.

Looks pretty neat.

looking good!..2 Infiniti's FTW!

Athens blue is a sweet color. I like the whole blue/black combo you have going. Looking good.

looking good keep the mods coming

Keep up the good work.

ab + black = win!

are you gonna buy new rims or prime those up and hit it up with a couple coats of black spray paint?

lookin good. what else do you have planned?

Off to a good start. Grille looks great.

Looks good.

very nice !!!!! black is the answer to almost any color

Thanks for all the replies. One thing I didn't think was that grill would take so long to paint lol. But it was worth it, only took like six seven hours. I mean the list of mods I want is endless.

I think I'll do the headlights next weekend. And I don't think I'll be buying rims anytime soon. But was thinking of getting the OEM's powdercoated gunmetal, with maybe a black lip.

Oh and yeah black always works. Theirs a reason everybody goes with it.

And I think overlays will be in the plan for the near future. You know how it is one mod sets off another one.

You mean, like this? :biggthumpup:
