I think you're going so far with the Black/Yellow that it's not going to be clean anymore...

It'll just be a clash of yellow and black

[:'(]
Ok these are my plans to tie in the yellow and black..

Black lip kit (1/2 on already)
Tinted tails and 3rd brake light (already on)
Black side markers (already on)
Black Spoiler (Have a painter if needed)
Possible black door moldings
Black door handle surround (handles stay yellow, custom painted)
%35 tint on all but the front windsheild which will have a 4" strip (all for 50 bucks)
Rims in either brushed aluminum or black. not sure yet.
Possibly a cuda style hood painted yellow and black (scoop will be black)

It will blend nicely.

I mean, the side mirrors, the b pillars and all around the windows (and the sunroof is tinted already) are already black. so the manufacturer already started the clash. I'm just making it look good

You should color match them.... it would look better than the blacked out look..

A totally black hood will look a lot better than some stupid half yellow half black hood...[:'(]

I'll take some pics of my car for you...

cuz its illegal to have tinted side, tails and thrid brake light, and the reverse light, ever wonder why nite shades or any other product to tint urlights is only found on the internet?most likely the reason the guy traded u his tintedparts for ur stock ones was cuz he got pull over several times for having em,supposed u get hit from behind there could bea posibility u get blame if the other person says they couldnt see ur damn stop lights or some other ****, but even ifu think lightstill shines through em the reflectors are not, check out wherethe ones on this tails are

see even the clear and smoked sidemarkers u see on ebayare dot approvedcuz they reflect the light, tho u also have to use a yellow/orange bulb on em, as u can see in the pic above the ledtails have reflectors too, but if u check on other cars(like the mazda3)the reflectors areseparate,in other wordsor to make it easier to explain, that ****s illegal and most likely ull get in trouble for it but may get awaywith it if u do somethingwith the reflectors like i said, and also gotto dosomething about ur reversing lights, hey u got ayellow neon, yellow and red lights look nice, but if u wanna go with the yellow andblack theme getsome blckhousingtails and smoked side markers

Id have to agree with yako about getting into trouble either by the cops or someone rear ending you and you may end up in a hit and run like I did for the rear end thing. Im getting rid of my tinted tails they are much darker than yours and so smooth . Im keepin my black leds and my mopar 3ds . Now the black leds look awesome tinted and they are so bright already . Ive seen some tinted and you can see way better with them tinted. Might do that to mine.
