Louis, that doesn't look that bad.
I personally don't really like two tones though, some other guy on here did it with a 2g, he posts in the norcal post whore thread. His was a weird color combo though so white might be able to pull it off.

I hate two tones...well most of them. I guess ive just seen too many Chip Foose vehicles with it.
But for some reason i cant get unwrapped from doing this. One thing that has to be kept in mind is that these pictures dont offer the shine/reflection that the vinyl will have.

I'm sure the final product would look better. You never know until you try and see it in person. You should do CF or LV =p

Louis - I dunno man..the back end of the "vinyl" near the trunk kinda ruins the body line of the 3G. I wanna see pics with the black on the trunk too. Maybe if you took it all the way back and CF trunk I think it might look better but for now, I say borderline ricey..IMHO.

You can pull it off being white. Just get a tan.

So far so good. I made sure that I bedded in the pads as per EBC's instructions, and for a while I was almost regretting my decision to go slotted/dimpled because they were a noisy for awhile with a scraping-like sound. The sound is much less pronounced now, and now that I've put on about 1000 miles, the combo of the rotors, pads and SS brake lines are great!

Someone here wouldn't happen to have a wheel lock to a 2G TL?
I got a fucking flat today leaving Corvallis and I left my lock at my friends gas station in California. $218 later the car is at my grandma's farm in Amity, awaiting the wheel lock from California. (I would rather pick one up from someone and get it done sooner then later)
