yes, i am, most likely paint.

i know it looks like alot of black, but at the same time we all know that pictures virtually never give an accurate representation of what is physically right in front you..

just trust me the blackout look is definitely on our cars.

 

not a fan of painted stockers... get some aftermarkets, didn't you wreck into a curb and supposed to get some rims? Black stockers look so tacky (read - ricey).

Is your exhaust just different mufflers? With something like a carbon fiber sticker around it?

 

Have fun...

great links!

 

yes, i did wreck, it was a f*cking deer!

couldnt scrape up the cash, this is obviously a temporary fix, painted stockers suck.. im well aware.

as far as the exhaust goes it's a megan racing deal, it's not a sticker it's real cf haha, with the burnt titanium tipsss.

 

AesonVirus, you're my heeeero

 

hey man - love the look. I actually like what you've done with the stockers! +1

I have my stockers as my winter setup... I wouldnt mind em powdercoated having seen it on yours.

 

i know lots of people have started doing it, so its sort of "cliche", but if you like the G37S coupe wheels get em. They fit perfectly and don't look dumb without a drop, and if you time the purchase when your current tires go bald - you can get a good deal. I ended up paying only about $500 extra to upgrade from the stock 18's to the g37 19s. Pretty damn cost effective, the ones i bought only had 200 miles on them.

You may be going for a more definite aftermarket look though? And that's definitely understandable, sometimes I wish I had gotten something that more people would recognize as not being stock

 

if i was going to get an improved stock look i'd definitely get g37 19's or M sport wheels.

i put my dads 18 inch M wheels on, and it looked pretty damn weird, haha.

but when i got the cash im going for the 'definitely not stock' look. i want to stick with black though, for some reason chrome makes me cringeee blehh

 

got me tempted to paint my stocks black now...

 

Whatever color scheme you choose is up to you, but the LEDs look horrible and have to go.

 

I actually like the LED strip... you installed that & the switch for it yourself?

 

thank you, i've never had anyone say anything negative about them when they actually see them. they look pretty damn good not to mention everyones trying to figure out what it is.

and yes i did them both myself, took like two hours, most of the time was figuring out how to take the bumper/headlights off..

but i just changed my headlights, and had the bumper off and on again in 45 minutes.

 

this guy is sucha hater, **** him. dude what you did not only looks great, but it came together very well. being that your 16 (im 17) im giving you a lot of props for this job.

Well Done!

screw josh, hes just mad cause he dove his moms buick at 16.

 

Hahah.

Straight up. Gotta be true ^
