I didn't even think of that So you're saying have the whole exhaust black with red around the very tips?? I'm off to photo shop lol.

The paint is expensive. I had 3 pr4 chips from different brands that were pretty close, but I'm a perfectionist. It was worth it to pay the extra $30 to have the actual paint so it's a perfect match.

All together here's what i have in the body mods listed in this thread

Eyelids - $50
Front bumper - $420
Roll pan - $200
Grill emblem - $20
Paint - $98
Painting - $480

Total: about $1300 give or take
