Gettin Crazy With The Gunmetal (The Black Demon Gets A Makeover)

I took last week off to work on the CR-V. Heres what happened.

Went from this...

To this....

Next up for it is some window tint, a bug deflector, and I'm debating on wether to take apart the headlights for a little JDM style treatment.

Looks cool... except for this pict. Kinda makes it look like your wheels are dirty with madd brake dust and dirt, and that you haven't washed your wheels yet. Otherwise, the other picts look clean.

Jeez, whats the deal. It (the "JDM style" line) was suppost to be a little sarcastic. Folks all getting bent out of shape and stuff. I figured everyone would get it. I figured wrong I guess. Sorry.

and no, I dont believe the CR-V has black headlight housings in Japan either. I just want to to do somthing a little different than what Ive seen done with a CR-V.
Peace!
