irregardless what i think of the wheel manufacture, the wheels look way better with out the caps, i just dont understand bolting on some plastic covers, it cheapens the overall effect, id be afraid of them flying off and killing some innocent bystander.

the grille does have to go, maybe powder coat it black. the door trim is not bad, looks like a porche cayanne.

One question, why keep posting new threads? just add on to the older ones......

looks less pretentious on your part.

all of you need to stop hatin..Just because IRCROMEO has different taste than you, doesnt make it okay for you to critisize him unnecessarily. Furthermore, if hes excited about his new mods on his car, let him post all he wants. As long as hes not contributing to this forum in a bad way, he can do it all he wants. If you dont like it, just keep your mouth shut. Jesus Christ.

I have to agree.

This community has become rather negative lately. If your going to post something negative save your energy and don't type it up. Everyone has their own taste -- not everyone is going to like what you do or don't do to your car. There is always going to be criticisim and I think everyone knows and understands that, I think what we don't understand is how to pass off "opinons" with alittle bit of tact. After all this is the web.. people can't tell what sort of "tone" you have with posting.

Your ride is certainly its own style romeo!

Btw IrcRomeo, i think you are going for the more loud and flashy look. Most people on here will critisize you because they dont understand that two different styles on the same car can look good. I think you got exactly what you wanted from your IS. Normally, i could see this sort of a setup on a Charger, but you make it work well on the IS. Don't listen to anyone on here..if you like your ride, then thats all that matters.

if you are going to keep the black caps on the rims then i say you should powder coat the grill black also...

The car looked better when the you stuck with just one look...

i personally don't like the grille but the car looked nice when it was the all chrome look.. oh and if you like chrome then maybe consider the chrome door handles..


but in this picture i say powder coat the grille black with maybe keeping the outer boarder of the grille chrome...



oh and definitely blackout or atleast tint the windows to complete the VIP look...

IRCRomeo,

Are you going to add chrome around the headlights? If not why?

It's great to see that your really enjoying your car.

People just b*tch because you have posted up a lot of pics in a short period of time.

Too much grill for me, and those rims just dont look right. Its all about personal style though. If you like it then who cares what others think.

I actually like the look. Especially with the black wheels (or wheel caps).

i like the dudes car a lot with or with out the caps on the wheels, but IMO the grills look a little cheap. IMO the car would be off the hook if the grilles where absent!!! Great looking IS bro
