Default Just finished painting tie bar black

Old pictures of tie bar in original color





and how it is now,







car is a bit dirty so bear with it. Black matches my car much much better than blue. and the spray paint was left over from my friend when we painted his headlights, so free mod for me.

Looks 10x better! Maybe I should paint my zspeed tie.. but I think it's black enough from the car being so damn dirty.

I got mines for 20 bucks, but if I had to pay retail price for the DC tie bar, then I would rather get the rear sway bar instead.

I like it black....its kinda stealthy I see a lot of people riding around with their bling on their exhaust (normal) and then bam a tie bar....looks good and different.
