Default Black GS on Black w/Red lip 20" Iforged Wheels

This is NOT my car, but I have never seen it posted before. It's different... I think it looks pretty mean. Especially with the BBK. What are your thoughts?

wow clean... red is a bit of a huge contrast for my taste but as long as you like it... did you get the front grille bezel and window trim done in black chrome? or was that bought from japan? its nice but it doesnt match with the chrome trim on the headlights... i like the fitment of the rims however along with your shaved rear.. very clean!

Looks like he also blackened out th chrome on the bottom of the doors as well. I agree with all your comment. It looks pretty good, but I wouldn't do the red on my own car. Nothing wrong with it though, IMO.

I kinda like it.
I'm not flashy enough to do it to a car I own but I could see myself sporting it around town for a day.
Might even grow on me enough to sport it for a few days..........

I don't like the all red taillights but do like the car. I think it needs dark tinted windows and I would paint the chrome trim black around the headlight and paint the "L" red to match rims and put one on the back to give a small accent of the red color on the body.


My new mantra:
What matters most is if u like it
