I say, Euro Black Headlight housing, L.E.D. Tail lights, Custom Interior L.E.D.s, A Strip or Logo kit, a Head Unit or Speakers Or Both. $500 can go a long way to adding some Prettiness to your Baby!!!!!

I think vinyl gives a lot of bang for the buck. But I think black racing stripes has been done a lot by others. I've been trying to talk red Monte owners into doing flat red stripes as I think it would look subtle, but very cool and original.

But tint is essential too - I wouldn't own a car without it.

You think that would look good? If you can find something that will show me what it would look like with that color stripes then I might do it!
