I'll be getting more pics up when i get my windows tinted after this weekend. I got it done from a friend for free, but it should cost no more than $100.

I don't like the many stripes so i rendered a few off.
The more i look at it, the more i like it.

man i'm not feeling that edited grill
but I am feeling the painted chrome bit on the starfire pearl.
I've got a black sapphire pearl and I think the color coded chrome would make it look less luxurious.
same goes for all dark cars
