should think about tinting your fogs to yellow, they will look good with the black body.

No fin, nicely chosen color of rims, no ground effects, tastefully dropped....Nice.

Probably one of the better rides I have seen on here. Good job.

You probably could have gotten away without tinting the headlights but still....looks good.

Agreed, very nice looking ride. The tinted head lights are not my taste either but the rims look really good. Cant wait to see what it looks like with tinted windows and the new grill. I just tinted my XRS its black with black interior, 20% all 4 doors and limo on the rear window, and it looks beautiful.

the only thing i hate on the car is the spoiler.. let me know if you want to trade trunk lids lol

Thanks guys! Here are a couple more with the grille ... yeah, I've been thinking about the smoked lamps, may remove the tint, not sure yet, going to sit on it for a bit The iphone cam doesn't bring out the actual color of the smoked lamps, looks better in person, but still I'm thinking I may remove them.

looks good, but get rid of the headlight covers.......... again major safety concern there.....and just a useless stupid mod. IMHO

I agree do the tails, not dark, just smoke them, and tint the windows for sure.

For the fogs if you do go yellow, you can get aftermarket bulbs, but make sure you get a heavy duty wiring harness as well, or you will fry the stock harness. Even if they say on the package 55watt, they put out more like 80. I just put some in my Camry, but i also upgraded the harness.

I think he posted a picture of the headlights and the light output was not majorly affected by the covers so I don't know see why there would be a major safety concern.

Anyone with Smoked Head/Taillights?

The new grill kind of kills the effect of the blacked out look in my opinion.
