i bought the car like that i had to paint the rims. later i took off the huge exhaust and put a magnaflow with tip. i blacked out my taillights it didnt stay like that very long, i got them Hx rims for like 250 and i finally got some blacked out corner and bumper lights, i bought that Y7 for 100 i decided to do a swap cause the timing belt snapped and those are kybs with aerospeed struts

I think painting the moldings, and the upper door molding (piece that sits on top of the door, and contacts the glass) black would make the car look like it hasn't been dipped in paint.

Teal is sweet though.

lol the thing is that It was dipped in paint the previous owner had te car since 91 and did all these mods to it and stuff and did his own paint job looks like he didn't even prep the car cause the paint is chipping off but I plan on doing all the body work in the summer and painting it flat army green and deffinitly get new moldings an powdercoat the rims black

GO with gloss instead of flat, IMO it looks so much better.

You're going to have to define "too much." Just to give you an idea, a JDM B16 complete change over is about $1700 and an LS complete change over is $2000.
