I considered that but think it would have looked to overdone (too much IP). I like how the lights go well with openings on the Nismo front end. The new vettes have the colormatched bezels but then again, those are vettes. I may play around with the extra set I have now and primer the bezels white just to see how it might look.

Thanks

Edit: Merry Christmas everyone

I think flat black looks very good but semi-gloss looks the best on everything but OB which gloss black looks the best.

That sounds awesome Tim. Thank you. I'm doing a set of 04s (coupe) and an 05 (sedan) this weekend. I'll snap pics during the sedan process to help justify the new thread

Thank you!
