I'd go for a matte graphite/black color with chrome lips myself.
What important is that you like it.

Looks like you need to lower it a bit in my opinion. Did you smoke ur tail lights? I like it.

Overall it looks NICE...

My car lowering days are over. I prefer comfort now days. I did tint my rear tail lights. However, it actually a film instead of paint.

I do love your tint tail lights. How and where did you get the film, did you do it yourself?

Very nice, and welcome to the board.
Also a FYI, the lowering modules drop the car about 1 1/4" which does not affect the ride with the air suspension. Anything more then that you will probably feel a difference.

The smoke tint is like the 3M clear bra. Same thickness. A local tint shop here in So Cal sells them. They put it on for me for $95. I think that's way easier than take your tail lights out and have a body shop paint it for you.

Are those 20s? What are the width? Look real nice. Also, is that 030 because the brakes look huge if those are 20s.
