Well personally i think they do look shit with the white headlights, but with a little tint on the lights it would keep the front looking dark and mean.  I'll see how it looks when i'm done.  Hopefully a little VIP and not too Poop.  When I get pics of my car you can express discust for the grill or not.... Personally i dont think that pic does the grill any justice.  Neither did my old car  :P

I thought the same at first but Neal's car doesn't have a TRX front lip or black wheels.

I'd say it's a chop.

i dont know... nissman has black review mirror's, and the one's in the avatar are yellow...
from experience putting colour to black/white is really difficult in photoshop, i would like to see some higher res shots though...

Needs a nissman style rear wing, rear skirt, rims, lowering and tint and that would just about do it. 8)

Hmm... something needs to be done about the bump strip that runs along the doors, I think it looks too plain with it all the same colour.

Good work anyway, do you have anything done to the car other than a paintjob and kit?
