inner rim = little difference
reflector = better looking if you can pull it off
signal = alright, but white/silver might look better on silver car
door handles = a big no

To me it means "base model" and I've always hated black handles. In DSMs it means RS which equals "Real Slow non turbo." But a lot of people like the Evo RS look and are doing that on purpose. I think you need more mods first, like maybe a CF hood, lip, rims before you consider it.

I like how the stock front bumper looks without the reflectors. I'm not sure about the black door handles.

You paid extra for the color-keyed handles, mirrors, etc... Why change it.

you think the reflectors are do-able?

all i gotta do is buy the right color paint. sand em a bit, prime em, then spray away?

im def gonna do the grill, and also the brakes, and i might have a bash at doing the inside of the rims.

Are you going to paint the reflectors the same color of your car? That wouldnt look too good, but if you shaved them completely it would look nice, but it would take a lot of work. I say yes to the grill and to the wheels. It looks good and may make your wheels look a little bigger. A no to the door handles.

the paint isnt gonna cost me more than $15, i can buy an antenna too.
im gonna buy a grounding kit also though.

i could just paint the reflectors black. that'll look better.
