B4 and After
BEFORE
AFTER
Most H-T members advised against this change, but I a still open for opinions. Also, I have been trying to change the brake pads for my rear brakes, but have been unsuccessful, is there a trick to this? I cannot get the caliper to relax enough to fit over the new pads and rotors.
I actually preferred to have my door jams color matched but I was really liking the black engine bay so I left this untouched.

Black was better. But owning a black car before, them bitches are hard to keep clean. I would say good job on the paint job but yeah, the white grill needs to be painted black again. Use black bumper trim paint.
