wassup all. i just want some opinions on what you guys think i should do with my stock-looking exterior DG g35. for now, im just concentrating on cosmetics. my plans are:

TS CF hood

Gila Grill
Volk CE38's in Gold
Matte black roof
projectors w/ painted black housing

another setup i was thinkin about doing is:

TE37's

what do you guys think? im pretty sure this is a common setup though. what would you guys recomend? thanks for your opinions.

i doubt purple would look good but photoshop it to see for yourself.

and why matte roof? glossy would look better imo.

glossy looks nice, but i like the matte effect. and plus, my dg paint is old lol its not that shiny anymore so i think it would look weird to have a glossy roof on a non glossy car. was gonna do matte grill and matte black housing

lol. do you have the sunroof? the matte black wouldnt match up to the glass.

since its a DG i would stick more towards the black wheels. gold doesnt really match DG imo.

do it if you like it!

thats why this thread is here! at first it did look weird, but then i saw some DG's with gold rims, and it looked pretty sick. but im open to all options. not buying them till next month so i have time to choose!

i would do gunmetal wheels, even black but not gold, especially since you're doing black roof, grille, headlights and tint on the tail lights, the gold would clash with your theme

I disagree. I have a DG with a black roof and I've had both gold and gunmetal wheels. Love the way both look.















But hey, different strokes for different folks.
