I've seen it done... i think i'm walking the line of good taste, if not straddling it.

It would be too much black.. plus I don't want police pulling me over.

Honest opinion I think it looks great but I have some knicks here and there. I'm not feeling the yellow out fogs. I prefer mine with clear lens with 3000k fogs (personal preference) and I think you should go 19" with thinner tires. The tires just feel too "meaty" to me. But that's just me being picky

Overall I love it.

"For now" is always relative. hell I just got my GFX kit on today and I want the spoiler too.

Nice but I would black out the reflectors at least.

Just barely good enough. It's a LITTLE tough to see at night, and I'm very glad I didin't go with 8000K

They look GREAT though. I'm really happy with them overall.
