I'm not going to bash you because we have all been there (back in the day).

1. Get regular tail lights

2. Lower it a bit

3. I would get regular head lightsm or if you like then its not to bad.

4. If you like the rims gust lower so there is no wheel gap or maybe get some other rims if you want.


I say a 6 but has the potential for a 8.

Welcome aboard.


If I were you those rims have good potential I would go to auto store and buy some dupicolor black spray paint and paint the rims were its white, black and leave a polished lip with those rivets. that would be nice.

Lose the tails, go to red/clears.

Lose the rims; the whole white rim fad has been on its way out for a while.

Drop it a bit, because a drop always looks good.

OR

Keep it the way you want

Build it how you want it to be. Dont just jump on bandwagons.

2500 is CHEAP! Thats a crazy price. Keep it clean and safe.

Best of luck.
