Oh - i used a Krylon type paint (paint section at your local hardware store) .. Silver colour. Its a plastic spray paint, no sanding / primer required. Dries in like 45 seconds, i did about 3 - 5 coats on the bigger pieces and 2-3 on the smaller ones just to ensure i got it all covered. Here are a few more daylight pictures




Just Washed er =D


Other than tinting my tails .. what are some other minor cosmetic changes i can do that aren't super pricey?

Youve pretty much done all of the cheap/free mods. Get one of those headlight restore kits, debadge the trunk, maybe paint the rims?

I acutally bought a headlight restore cream today .. it did nice to the left headlight, and the right one which is bad is semi clear now .. probably should've bought the 5 dollar more kit. Meh.

And yes the added U in words is quite obvious. Haha.

And can you give me any suggestions as to the rim painting?

keep in mind, if you are planning on buying the bullit wheels, you can sell the stock ones to recoup some of the cost!

that is what I did. Free up some cash for other things....
