bit the bullet and succeeded in blacked out headlights!

Well BIG thanks to Tay, ie HFJ8080, I got my headlights blacked out, and I have to say I'm very happy. My rally red evo x looks awesome now in the front end, my theme for my car is the red, flat black, and carbon fiber. Only have a teaser pic from last night at the moment, as I'm about to go another friends to help me reput my bumper on as it got too late last night when me and Tay finished to really see so installed everything halfass to just get home. After I fix the bumper (also gonna paint the chrome ring around fogs and maybe the ac line by the grille and intercooler pipe by the right fog to hide it), wash it, I'll take some nice pics to post on here, so rally red guys who hadn't seen how it'll look, I'll give ya the chance. So next step is wheels, have 100% decided on flat black, probably the xxr 522's in 18x9.5 with 25 offset on my 245 falken tires, stretch won't be bad at all.

TEASER:

"18x9.5 with 25 offset on my 245 falken tires"

If you are spending the cash on wider wheels why are you going with new tires the same size as stock? Why not go wider?

Because that would imply buying new tires? Another 800 - 1,000 dollars...

I think he already has the Falkens if I'm not mistaken.

Looks legit. How long did you have to bake for till the sealant was ready to pry apart?
