hey what kind of lip is on your car and what i would recomend if you black it out i would say get a darker tint on your windows and dont touch the door handles the chrome is more classy and few cars have it, but also a huge plus would be to black out the roof

its a coupe datasystems lip that i had molded on its not a direct fit you have to do some work to make it fit, although i think that klumzyee makes a replica for the 05-06 sedans dunno if it will fit the 03-04 though

I thought about this too but if you are gonna black out the window trim then you will have to retint the windows darker to match. My suggestion is to color match the window trim instead! (GF) Regardless you should colormatch the door handles.
