^Do it. Trust me.

I was a little unsure, but after looking at others that had been done I decided to.
When I picked up the car from the body shop, the manager (friend of mine) told me "At first, I wasn't too sure if painting the door handles was going to look right... but now that it's done, it looks really good"

I'll consider it.

^Lol... I post that link up and immediately get two people asking about the wheels

They're Privat Gassens (made by König) with a custom Matte-Black/Ivory Pearl paintjob.
Size is 19x8 +30 on all 4, tires are Hankook Ventus V12 EVO 245-40-19 and they just baaaaarely clear without rolled fenders.

Actually, on your color, they would look pretty good in the finish they come with:

Thanks man, Yeah, I've more than "thought about" it... I'm going to do it, along with a projector retrofit, just getting everything that I'll need first, so I can do everything at once.

Don't wanna hijack the OP's thread, if anyone has questions about my car, you can ask them in here: https://g35driver.com/forums/media-s...erd-style.html

IDK... did you get a camber kit and bring it back to spec? If so, that's why.... I'm on z springs, so I have a very small amount of neg.
