okay here lies the problem, my focus is a dark blue color and for the life of my i cant think of a single way to improve the exterior of my car! if it was white or black id paint the wheels and black out more stuff! im just lost....
[mecry]
idk about black rims i dont think theyll look bad at all, i just want a more unique car, my interior, well i love it i have it set up how i like it all painted with a nice radio just my exterior is just not as... unigue or clean as id like it and black wheels just seem such a small change in contrast to the blue
hey thanks guys idk about the white wheels right now due to it being a pain to find 4x108 wheels and due to not wanting to get new wheels right before winter, but i do like the color matching ideas! i think ill do that rather soon once i can find the right color or have it made
damn i like that... itll be a while before i can get all of that but that looks fantastic, good photoshop skills to, but is it legal to black out the side markers? cuz if it is i can actually do that today
uhm.... so mass says its illigle to lower my car? why is that.... 2 inches none the less http://www.malegislature.gov/Laws/GeneralLaws/PartI/TitleXIV/Chapter90/Section7P
and i cant find anythin about the side lights so im guna goto city hall tomarrow about it... damn sometimes i wish i lived in CT they get one inspection when you buy the car and just emmisions after that
City hall won't know anything. If anything, the State Police will be the ones bustin your balls. I sit right by an exit ramp in Swansea on my lunch break and I see lowered cars all the time. Don't even worry about it. As for the wheels, you can always try white plastidip on your stockers for the winter. Just for a feeler anyway. As shown above.
lol yellow wheels?
i hate to say it but i kinda like it because im 90% sure almost no one does that but ill have to think about wheel color, but right now im sure i want to color match the trim, any how to's to do this? tomarrow is my birthday and i want to start on this as a present to my self lol
and hey just painting your existing rims yellow would look good so you wouldn't have to pay $400 a rim on actual color rims ...get some wheel paint (plasti dip) for like $10 a can..may need 2 or 3 cans...and nightshade your tails...2 or 3 coats let dry over night..sand and then clear coat it
i would so do the night shade! but the big man would rather me not... not legal here in mass, and once i find some colored plastidip ill try something crazy just as a temporary thing probably, unless i really like it, and thanks for those tutorials man! i know ill get use out of them
I don't mean to revive a dead thread. But, I can tell you that you can lower your car way more than 2 inches. I live in Westfield as well and my car is slammed and have never had any problems other than potholes..
Here's a pic for reference, awful quality, but you can see I'm way lower than 2"...:
