Looks hot man! Black rims on white cars = porn. The interior trim looks really neat too - did you do it yourself? Get the rest of the lower body bits colour matched too, that'd really set it off!
Welcome to the ST162 brigade!

That's right - I have the 3SGE... with extractors it performs very well. I wasnt really shopping for 'performance' as such when I bought the car but I still got a very economical performer.
My previous car was a civic, and compared to that - IT FLYS!!

Shouldn't be too much to paint a small strip. Either that, or you could go Autobarn or something, get them to make up a spraycan of your cars colour (assuming its stock or you've got the colour code for it), and spray to your liking  You then got some paint left over for minor chips and dings etc...

Yeah the only thing is - by the time you have bought a spray can with your paint colour and a clear coat spray AND used up your whole sunday you might has well paid someone maybe $100- to do it for you?!

Good point!
Thats the best bit about the black wheels and the white interior bits n pieces - I DID IT MYSELF! It may have taken me a damn long time and cost me more than it had to but I DID IT!

well...
I'll take that on board!
The other option is to smoke them? I have seen that too, and it aint too bad... especially when the tail panel (where the number plate sits I mean) is coloured in the body colour?!

Thanks for letting me know 'out of your own opinion' - but that was why I posted the image in the first place. I dont HAVE painted tail lights, my lights are stock. So there is no offence buddy - cos there not mine!
