ok guys i tried to take a pic or 2 today it was mass rainy outside yesterday, heres how they look so far i got 20% dark smokes, along with a profile shot for the sidemarkers, and lastly ive also posted pics of my hood incase anyone was interested.

the question that most people have been asking me is about the 20% being too dark. The answer i get from ppl who have done it and the answer ill give you guys is that its up to you what you want. they both look great, and as for getting in trouble, i dont think that 20% will get u into much trouble. The problem with tint being too dark is if u cant see your tail lights light up with the normal drl in direct sunlight, and 20% has no problem with that.

last and not least my hood was done by shinzo, and if you look carefully yes my roof is also vinyled too, but i DIY'ed the hood after sitting at shinzos for 2 hours watching them do my hood and tails. and yes i DIY painted my rims and calipers, as well as the front bumper vinyl and headlight sidemarker blackout.

i like the rims and the hood. its different, and a good way to stand out. lol I am just surprised shinzo had enough vinyl to cover all that area.
good stuff
I might opt in for the tail lights, just gotta figure out if i wanna go that dark for a black car. I will pm you soon "three"
Keeping this thread on topic... how many are opting in for this tail light buy.

please work with three29 to get this.

you cant tell too well from the pics, but its actually red trim on the roof, and its not really trim, its actually just plain old red electrical tape LOL but i know what u mean, i wanted to see how it looks with red calipers, and the tape cost me $2 with half a roll to spare so ill keep it on for now but why not the the red calipers?

Nice car. Its very hard to take nice pictures with a grey car. I found the camera gives the car a dull greyish black colour, better to see it in person. Red , black and blue go well with the GG but its hard to keep it clean.

Are you lowered? What springs?

Maybe some aftermarket rims will increase the look.
