wow. 04 mo. thanks for the pic of the mirrors, it looks great. i cant wait to see mine. lol. i was hoping that itd look good bcuz the only other color matched ones ive seen were white. but ill let you kno about the texture thing when mine comes back. i also did see where the guy on srt forums did the painting tail lights. too bad he dont still do it. im prolly for sure going with the black tho.....i also wish i woulda got black rims instead of gunmetal

Your welcome. I'm debating on what I'm doing with the wheel setup on mine, I was all for brushed aluminum, but I dont know if that will look good b/c the lip kit is going to make my car look sleek and low to the ground while the wheels I wanted to get I guess are out of production but would have made my car look higher so they would not work well together.

heres the wheels i was gonna use the same ones as in the painted light pic


here is the kit with black rims whith a polished lip which i'm thinking about in a 10 spoke design, i just havn't been able to find one that I really like so any help would be great on wheel choice.


I dont know though if anyone is good at photo shop and could turn the black car to blue with brushed aluminum wheels that would be great b/c its har for me to picture stuff in my mind thats so detailed.

gm, I think those will fit on your car because they are the same shape. Personally I'm going to go with the black three circle ones and see if lowslow came make me some projectors. With the mirrors I think you have to sand it to make it smooth because with my freinds S2k that what we had to do with the roll bar covers. They turned out great. Like the blue calipers in the pic though.

In fact they are different shapes...03-05 taillights do not work on 00-02 Neons...

bro thats not hard to do.... all you need to do is put them in the oven for alittle bit and then just take the clear plastic cover off and then hand paint them..... mask off what you dont wanna paint and then paint away.... at least thats how i did it for a friend of mine, cept he has a mazda3 speed, lol either way its an easy job... you just need to be very patient....

Almighty neongod, they look very similar so are they just barely different? Also would I be able to put 03 tails in mine if I change the bumper?

I'm looking at a Kaminari rear bumper and they both look the same but I don't know which one I want.
