if it was me, I'd paint it black.
would match the wheels and the rear visor
but silver would look pretty good too...

I was leaning more towards black too for those reasons.Quote:

I used meguiars tire shire it holds up pretty good or the armorall tire shine that looks like a ketchup...lol
I heard that was good. Gonna try that one next week then :)
where is it going
Me and my girl went to the lake over the weekend to watch fireworks and just get away. It had been raining on and off and had left some nasty deposits on my car so I washed it while I was up there and decided to snap some photos. As soon as I found out her camera took much better pictures than mine, it became the new offical car photo shoot camera :)

Kinda hard to see, but recently did a rear disc swap to match my powerslot/ hawk combination I have in the front. Thanks again N3O for all that help, and thanks again to Astig for the great prices.
looking good John!
Nice! How are you liking the megans and extra brake power so far John? It looks really good!

I love it. I'm still riding a little higher than most lowered cars, but it's not a problem for me. I can get up my drive way without a scrape, don't slam on the city pot holes, and still have a great look.Quote:

Oh, and it's Jon not John. lol
I like what you have going on with all the black accents, it's actually a good route to pulling off that "old school" JDM look. You need yellow/orange fogs, or possibly just coat the lenses and it'll look pretty sweet. Ever considered black door handles to go with the handle trim? No ass shots, but I think I see altezza's, 2nd gen JDM's would be perfect for your look IMOQuote:

You are correct about the Altezzas, but I really dont like the look of JDM or orig tails. I dont really like the Altezzas either, but I like them better than the other choices. Im probably going to black out the Altezzas for now until I decided to begin my taillight project.Quote:

Heres an ass shot btw. I just didnt put it up because its not much different than ones I've taken before.

nice what is that a ski resort in the hills?
Nice pic Arel
You should man, you'll love it. I keep looking at them and can't remember why I kept the drums on for so long. Debating on painting the calipers all around (have the fronts black), but after a Chicago winter, that paint just fades.Quote:
