I like the chrome lining, but I'm curious what the IS would look like without it. Anyone have pics? Either photochops, or the real deal after a mod.

Any color is fine, but I'm especially curious about red since that's my color.

That looks pretty nice. Thanks for the pic.

... Never been a big fan of window visors, though. Don't suppose anyone has pics of one without those?

hey rocketguy i have my chrome trim blacked out... we used this tape called black out tape that you can get at pepboys... i used tape because i thought if i were to ever sell my car again or just wanna go back to chrome i could just take it off.. it stays on really well and makes a big difference.

if u need help let me know i'll be back in houston in a few weeks probably maybe u can check mine out in person when i get back
