All Blacked Out **56k Beware**
Here you go guys... pics as requested When I first got this car the first thing I thought was "chrome is for gangstas" and let me tell you... I ain't a gangsta
Only thing that's going to be changing is another Metallic Gray Emblem on the front (the paint is drying right now)

Do your reflectors on the back bumper-i smoked the tailights and did the reflectors-it was a bitch to do but well worth it. I love the smoked tailight look-impressed it looked so good on a grey

Actually there are three places I missed and I'm trying to think about how I want to fix it. The area around the keyhole on the drivers door (yeah I know its small) is chrome as well as the lower parts of the tire valve stems. (I have black caps but the bottom is chrome). And then the tailpipes...
I'll figure out a way to fix it

Did you replace the window trim and handles with JDM/EDM parts?

Very clean and stealthy!
Going the wrong way... what a rebel Now you just gotta learn the difference between black and gray. just kidding.
What color is the rear emblem? It looks like matte finished dark silver... sorry if you covered this topic already - I'm usually hanging out in the 3G section.

I have a few other plans for the handles (they are obviously the hard part) but not 100% sure what I will do yet

The emblem is actually a metallic gray, just a tad lighter then the paint color.

I tried window tint film and just to let everyone who might have been thinking about doing that... it doesn't really work
I just got some of Rockblocker's smoke film for fog lights and I'm gonna try that. The film was too thin and suscepable to weather, hopefully rockblocker's stuff wont be because it's designed to be outside the car
I'm gonna do that today or tomorrow so I'll let you know how it turns out.
