Alright, I am going to scrap the idea entirely and just paint them.

If I was going to do it I think this would look better.

I think the car looks good Nick...time to get some 20" rims. You could pull it off since you have a body kit anyway. HRE or the new VIP modular stuff looks pretty good too.

I love the black one Nick. You could always add a pinstripe later via vinyl.

Btw did you install the sideskirt backwards after the accident? I thought it was different in your earlier pictures.
