Thanks. The lip is the VIS cf. As for the rims I am starting to get tired of them as well. I am thinking of powdercoating them in black. I really havent figured that out yet.

Here in a couple of months I am going to get a CF hood. I think black rims would look good. any suggestion. I am open for all options. I like to here opinions.


Thanks again

You're on the right track. A nice gloss black powdercoat would compliment your Si quite nicely.

i dont understand, you painted your headlights, but it looks like the CTR headlight, because i can see a city light, unless you put some custom city light in there.
or you had CTR headlights and painted them.

The color was Gray Anthracite Metalic with clear coat on top.

The lights are OEM lights that I put city light into to make look like the CTR's. at night you cant really see a differance. until you get close on it.

I like the city light and had to do it. I just couldnt spend the $500 on the lights.

They turned out pretty good. I like them. Thanks.
