Finally finished the front end and she looks mean... lovin it. Had too much chrome for my taste, and I am so glad I did these mods.. (top, bottom grille, front lip) Debating if I should wrap the chrome blades to black as well. What do you guys think? leave it chrome or wrap it black? (Maybe CF?? too tacky? )

Big shout out to Chris at Mina Gallery for all the help...

next stop... exhaust, pulley and maybe a tune (I really dont want to void my warranty but pawahhhhh!!)

Oh and new shoes for her..

 

Since you put the new style red Growler emblem on the grille, you may want to change the black center caps to red.

I prefer the original black Growler, since IMHO it goes better with the blackout theme. I'd also wrap the chrome blades black, have the OEM Kasuga wheels resprayed black, and black out the rest of the chrome trim. For the finishing touch, I'd get a vanity tag VADERXJ.

 

Looking good !

I dont like the full blacked out look, its just over played in my mind, but you toning the chrome down some looks custom.

 

Yes, do the blades and I like the vanity tag idea

 

VADERXJ vanity plate is a nice touch... great idea

 

Thanks for the input. I decided to black out the chrome blade but leave the side chrome alone (to break up the car a bit, but who knows I might change my mind) I'm def going to black out the chrome piece on the back bumper tho. As for the rims, I'm going to respray it dark gold. (I'll prob do some photoshop work and post it for comparison.) I've already got Cali legacy plate coming in.(black bg w yellow letters) "VR I 46" motogp fan and love this guy... and its his color.. had to do it. VR46 was already taken so this was the next best option. will post pic as soon as I get the plate.
