    Tint and/or shadowline?

    Was thinking of shadow lining the rest of the car and at the same time getting some tint. Others have mentioned that the chrome looks good with the wheels and that I should swap back to chrome kidneys. Also, wheels need to be refinished so played around with colors in PS, but I think I'll keep the silver. Oh and debadge? What do you guys think? Was having some trouble deciding for myself.










    And how it looks now

          You think so? I still do have a rear collecting dust and waiting for paint. It's just that I kinda like the unique look of them with the late model body, plus they are great for parking in SF :neutral:

          How long does it take to swap just the rear? Gonna try to give it a quick spray and mount it to see how it looks.

            I can take a rear bumper off in less than 5 minutes...and thats being very conservative and including a beer break.

                            Tint - love it or leave it. I personally would leave it.

                            Shadowline Trim - either way, just be sure to keep the theme common.

                            Debadge - only if you shadowline, and even then it is not necessarily a deal breaker.

                            Wheels - Photoshop up a pic like your third one there, but only darken the spokes and leave the lip silver, see what you come up with!
