Not bad! I dont like the grill or the lugnuts.. and the exhaust tip was kinda cheesy... but everything else looked good!
im still 50/50 about painting the rims... i have the electric blue gts and i think white would look alot sharper then the stock grey.... and i need to get a tint job in a bad way!!

thats what my friend did.
i did not remove anything but the wheel and then mask everything off and spray paint, you may get some on the rotating plate, but its not a biggie if you do a good masking

sorry.. i just tried taking pictures and videos. its terrible. the blue under neon lights are a great look if you trust me. and the lip of the rim will look really circular if you try your best to make it circular, you won't mess up. you have to believe in yourself =).

I hate the led-s and neons on the inside and outside. Some things look nice though.

thank you all for the comments, support, and criticism. I have taken all your thoughts into consideration. Everything was spray painted. Everything can be reverse. I'm actually planning to spray paint my stock GTS wheel into chrome when I'm bored of these black/blue ones. I haven't spend more than two hundred dollars on these mods. I'm sorry for those who did not like the style and was even offended that I have 'destroyed' a perfectly new car. I thank you guys for understanding that it's my taste and style. When I was younger than I am now, these were all dreams i saw in movies that i made come true on my own car. Well anyways, still, if you guys have any questions as to any of the mods, I will be glad to help.

im confused, u DO know that just about ALL the parts that you painted are removable? there is no reason to ''TRY'' to mask everything off if you can remove it and spray it in a garage or somewhere without wind. Also, The color doesnt look good IMO. it almost looks like you took a highlighter to all the pieces of the car. as others have said in your other posts way to ruin a car. To each his own but i really think u took a wrong turn down a one way street

I did take all my parts off besides my calipers. Ahh, maybe I did take a wrong turn.. I might consider all of it black when I am bored of the colors.

ashun22panda - I just want to say "thank you" for being so mature. A lot of folks post up their stuff for opinions and get incredibly offended when people don't like it. You're much more mature and are happily taking the good with the bad. Also, you did a good, helpful write-up explaining how to do stuff. I appreciate all of it.

thank you all for the opinions, i have taken everything into consideration and decided to really change a few things. i'm going to paint my grill, (currently blue) to black glossy. after that, i'm going to take off the mitsu emblem on my trunk and paint the trunk button black. along with that, my whole engine bay will be another color, i wasn't feeling the blue today when i got to my dealership to look at the evolutions. i don't know what color yet, but i enjoy spray painting.

great looking car! i like the wheels and brake calipers the best! painting the door hook i thought was kind of excessive, but at least it matches!
