I've now owned this '03 coupe for a little over a year now and I couldn't be happier with this car. I just wanted to show the progress I made with the car after a year of owning it. Like i said when I first bought the car I'm not going to touch any performance parts because it's my daily drive,r and I personally don't feel it's worth it especially since I don't drive it like a race car. I went vinyl wrap crazy with this car because of how much cheaper it is than painting it (especially since I wrapped it myself), plus if you do it right its hard to tell the difference. Here's my list of changes I've made:
Wrapped the entire car in Avery Dennison Gloss Red vinyl wrap.
Gloss black vinyl wrap accents.
Carbon fiber vinyl wrap on the spoiler and mirrors.
Drilled and slotted rotors on the front.
Tinted Side markers and tail lights.
Aftermarket Headlights.
Black Grill.
I think it's striking. Bold. There is a design consistency among the elements you chose to accent with the black. There is crispness in the contrasts.
The red to my eye is too orange. It's not a red that expresses the personality of the G. The red/black scheme is retro, not innovative. It's a little tired.
The workmanship appears to be taut and well executed. Again: crisp.

This is a critique, not a criticism.
Yeah, I wish the red wasn't so bright but oh well, and I do get the orange comment a lot. When it's clean it glows. I appreciate the feedback man.
Hmmmm want to really like but just can't. Will give you major props though for the craftsmanship and detailed work. I wish I could do that kind of thing............
Wow this one is rough to look at.
2017 and we're STILL tinting tail lights, running eBay lights, and painting stock wheels.
Well unfortunately I don't make as much money as you probably do, so I get by with what I can when I can. The tail lights still light up at night and get brighter when braking, the painted stock rims still spin, and the headlights still let me see at night so I'd say my car functions the same as yours.
Personally, I think you did a good job vinyl wrapping the interior and exterior of the car, it would have been hard job. I didnt really like vinyl wrapping my interior (it looked cheap) the dash, center console, etc. Therefore, I decided I would go with paint.
