New BOM pics. The orange and black theme continues.

Washed the car today since the clouds went away, notable additions to the car is a NHBP spoiler, and JDM emission stickers. It was interesting to see that in the sunlight NHBP has Purple, Green and Blue flakes in it! Can't wait till spring to put my rims on.

Yes I think I will do some black rims in spring. Also bugging me is that I didn't paint the bumper behind the J's grill. Might fix that in the spring too.

I dont like the spoiler.
If anything get the Spoon CF spoiler but DO NOT get a CF hood.

I like the current look. I wouldnt know what color wheels to get honestly. I deff wouldnt do black though. Basically because everyone will be expecting you to get black wheels. A bright silver of bright gold is what Id do, topped off with black lugs.

Happy Halloween erryone!!! JK

the front of the car looks good, but I think you killed the rear of it. take the tint off your tail lights, and get rid of the black oe spoiler

Nice colors. But I think you should paint the front lip black. The top of it. Now it stands out a bit and don't fit the rest. With a black lip it would be more in line of the rest.

Wow a lot of haters on my car!! That's okay, I do have rims (Bronze HFP's and Bronze Gram Light 57S's), but they are not on the car because here in BC we can get some rough winter days. Second, my tails have been SPRAY tinted, so they are pretty much stuck like that for now

I think maybe when I fix the grill, put the rims on and do something about the tails it will look a bit better. The NHBP spoiler was just a test, and I'm going to be putting the stock one back today.

Does anyone think the STOCK tail lights would look better then the tinted 1.5S I have now??

Leave the tails only cause I hate the all clears. I like the BOM and black theme just dont get carried away with it. I think *add color here* and a little black is nice. Black is a trim color so going crazy makes a car look bad. Reason why I didnt do a red black theme on my car. Just accessory parts.

Reason why Im not a CF fan. I HATE seeing cars with OEM paint, CF hood, and front fenders. Why? Its like wrecking the front of your car and leaving the new pieces in primer.

Glad to hear you have bronze rims though. Ditch those HFP's Eww.
Seriously, CF rear spoiler it. Itll keep the black wing look you wanted. But thats all Id do CF wise.

i think you should just leave the tails! if you like'em.. but if you could figure out a way to just take the spray tint off.. that would be cool! and since you dont like all the silver on those tails, spraying some red would prolly turn out nice.
i think your car looks dope. i really like the front grill, i'm thinking of getting one just like yours. where'd you get yours from?
i think you just need to slap those Gram Lights onto your car and you will be set.
if you feel people are hating on your car they're just tryna to help you out or just giving you some honest feedback. not really hating.. but again, it shouldn't matter what others think because it's your car! if you like how your car looks then thats all that should matter

if they've been sprayed, have you thought about using some 800-2000 wet sandpaper to take it off and then finishing it up with plastic polishing compound? you can pic up mequiars plastic cleaner and polish at crappy tire. just treat them as though they're a set of pitted plastic headlights.

the stocks look better than the 1.5s, even if they were untouched. 1.5As look best, imo.

Good job anyways keep up the mods and keep us all posted

Thanks for all the positive and negative feedback guys! The orange fit is such a hard car to make look good IMO, I just want winter to be over so I can put my rims on and fix my grill.

I tend to agree with the rest unfortunately, and tend to think your car looked much better before it got out of hand with the Black and Orange theme. However, the taillights aren't THAT bad, but the spoiler, and tint are definitely ruining things for me personally. Also your emissions decals have been put on wrong.

At the end of the day you shouldn't worry about what WE have to say as in reality it's YOU that has to live with it, not us.
