I know most of you aren't fans of chrome wheels.
But they do look better in person.  :)

yeah i have to agree, the vault wheels dont quite look right on any car..... its not just the chrome on them.....

other than that very clean, and for some reason the engine looks like it belongs in that engine bay :)

good job

i'm for chromies. as long as they don't look like die-cast crap. don't listen to them, its ok for your car to be unique and the way you want it. a few questions though:
-what did you paint your extractors with? the high-temp paint i used wasn't high temp enough and just flaked away.
-are those foggies stock? a mate of mine just bought a series 2 trx and it came with foggies just like that.
-how did you make the tail lights darker?

My stock garnish looks exactly like that :P

-what did you paint your extractors with? the high-temp paint i used wasn't high temp enough and just flaked away.

Good quality extractors come ceramic-coated, or you can get yours ceramic-coated. Not sure on price or who does it but I know there are people who do it.

-how did you make the tail lights darker?

Night-shades spray-on tint, you can get it from Autobarn or Supercheap for about $14.

Some other suggestions: Clear front and side indicators, would make the car a lot cleaner...
