OK, so I recently got rims for the car. I held out as long as I could. The before shot is with staggered wheels. I was OK with this for about 2 weeks. Then I went out to look at it one day and was like the back looks mean but the front looks well, whimpy. So I went back to the tire shop and got 18x9 rims(same as back) for the front. Put a 255 tire on the front and Im still using the 275 in the rear. Looks way meaner now.

BEFORE

Also added covers to all the lights.
AFTER

Painted the front and rear logos as well today. Now the car is truely BLACK on BLACK!!!!

I need some feedback. What do you guys think?

The wheels look good. I've seen another car on the NW forum that put the deeper dish on the front as well on the SN95 body style. Is this the new trend? The rear badge looks good as well but the front is too busy. Maybe lose the headlight covers.

front license plates FTL. Nice car though and wanna make me a deal for your old front wheels?

+1 I just can't get excited over black wheels on a dark car unless it has a chrome lip or something.

But if that's your bag baby, more power to ya.

wait are u asking what u think of the photoshop of lights blacked out, or that u actually blacked out the lights? because in some pics your corners are amber, others black, same with rear 1/4 panel lenses. also in some pics your license plate is all in gray's. am i missing something?

haze1995 · #13 (**permalink**) 06-01-08, 08:54 PM

HAHA, yeah the new camera I bought can isolate any one color and everthing else is black and white. So the 2 pics where the turns and markers are "smoked" is the camera isolating the green in the pic.

max427 · #14 (**permalink**) 06-03-08, 05:52 AM

so what did u actually black out then? do you have an honest camera lol?

I like it. Did you paint your rear faux gas cap? I've been wanting to do that to my car for so long now.

haze1995 · #17 (**permalink**) 11-19-08, 09:58 PM

yes, I painted the fake gas cap on the back. really easy, did it in the parking lot at work over my lunch break.

Sorry for the late reply, Im deployed to Iraq.

deep dish fronts look much better

No paint on the brake calipers? Maybe powdercoat the exhaust too...?
