My NBP TL-S lowered with tints and some brand new rims

Finally got my rims and a wax yesterday, so I thought I'd take some pictures.

My tail lights are very lightly tinted as well.

You should also smoke out the head and fog lights. Car is looking good.

Looks good man! I think you're in need of a debadge and to complete the murdered out look you should consider having your grille painted. Also an easy mod is the key-lock cover

Rims are 18's wrapped in Sumitomo HTR ZIII's 245/40. They do look like 19's from far away.

I don't want too much black without chrome, so I'm not going to debadge or black out the grill.

The only thing that's really killing the look is the headlights. Blacking those out is next.

Just look up www.bluebatmobile.net and get 1/2 tints for your headlight side markers. He has them in "smoke" to match your tails. Great lookin' ride !!!

What's the offset on those? Is there any rubbing with them and/or did you have your fenders rolled?
