Do it. Except paint the door handles, window trim, emblems, grille, and headlight housings black as well.

Nice car. Check out the wash and wax section to get those swirls out. 02-03 tails would look really nice. Save up for some aftermarket wheels instead of painting the stockies. Drop would look good, and same goes for the tints. Not a fan of the gold grill either.

I guess it all depends on how you feel and how much you got. Ask yourself, you want BOLD like lambo hot colors, or sleath classy look. Then work your budget... but you know the common mods, CAI, headlight custom, dropped an inch or two, tint, exhaust, wheels.... then if you want to jump into big leagues, go for a crazy front end conversion and supercharger and top it off with air bags or something lol. be creative. good luck! oh yea and a crazy sound system so you have in your car!

Thank ya'll for all the feedback i will try to work on all the suggestions,
but first i'm getting an Escort 9500 ix,
and than i'm thinking of installing the Pioneer AVIC-F700BT in dash navigation av reciver, i found a double din kit on ebay for $89.99.

does anyone know anything about the Pioneer? is it a good idea or not? is the f700bt a good unit? any other suggestions i want to stay at around $500. btw i'm saying $500 because thats the price on ebay, and thats the price at bestbuy with employee discount.

looks cool just keep in minde the stock rims arn't that winde so if you want to get better performance get some winder wider rims and tires. It will look better, and be more flush with you fenders if you drop it.
