your cleared lights look sweet. are you using the stock bulbs? Also, your car look good with the bling bling rims and the car is all nice and clean. Great looking ride.

what did you do to the headlights? they look matte finnished. I swear, black is the hottest volor for a cl, but too bad its high maintence. those 19"'s with the drop must be murder on the ride comfort. sweet ride, you need to take some sunset pics with no buildings around.

Wow man I still don't get how your wheels look like powdercoated plain and gay during the day but at night they suddenly become pimpin shiny silver almost chrome.

I definitely like your rims when they bling but during the day they look so plain.

Nice work on the headlights.

Can I send you mine to get done up like that?

Were you referring to Jillian's only on the New England states, or were you referring to in general??? Jillian's is like all over the place They have like 2 here in Houston

Soopa, sweet ass ride man. So I guess those are the 03' HL lamp housings? And I could have sworn those roadlamp bulbs are not factory (they don't look piss yellow). Now all you need is the 03's (it didn't look like you had those in the pic) rear lamp housings. I was just thinking about that today walking away from my car at work, and think that would definetly look tit on a black CL'S Now worth it is a different question.

ya they were all takin in Albany within a 3 mile radius of my house.


JRock. ya just send me your whole car and I'll do it up riiite (after a sufficient test drive of course)

The reason the rims look nasty grey during the day is DIRT. It's been raining for 2 weeks here... last night was first dry night so I cleaned her up.

Its clean right now so I'll take some shots in a few hours to show how bling bling they look when clean


As for all the light bulb comments... yessa I know. Those are stocks in the roadlamps cuz my last pair of bulbs blew out.

I gotta buy new fog bulbs.

As for the turn signals... I already have all the bulbs. Just gotta get off my ass and put them in. My garage is under renovation so I gotta juggle workin on that or workin on the car in my ghetto ass driveway.

All my interior lights are red.

btw, no on the '03 tails for me... I don't like them.

I prefer the all red look over the white/red look. the all red looks benzier

I do have another idea tho....

that pic is probably a little deceiving.

while they do have a decent "lip"... the spokes are close to being flush... so its kind of a fake lip. hehe

heres some shots...

Nice! The satin finish kinda makes the high-beams appear as if they were projector units.
