well i guess its going on the todo list! that top picture looks pretty good. I wonder though how much sanding and prep has to go into the mirrors? Mine arent smooth, there kind of a "bumpy" texture I guess you could say. Wonder how the paint will look once sprayed.

Don't worry about debadging and the paint not matching, I debaged my 02 this spring and it was fine. You'll have the slightest "shadow" of the badges on the paint, but it fades off quickly.

if your gunna change ur wheels i would go for an import look. try a grey,black or gunmetal color 22" with chrome lip.

for headlight housing i would make them black and also take off the silly orange reflector .and if u want to risk it i would tint out the taillights.

adding a aluminum gas cover would help coordinate with the grill cuz u got the bullet grill which is hot. i dont understand people who wanna paint their bullet grills black

it seeems like u dont like chrome much though but its either way

grey+chrome or grey+black
