I don't like em. Makes the car looked stoned instead of aggressive.

Yeah, it already looks like you replaced the stock headlights with the blacker housing, what if you got yourself an SLP grille or a Tony Stewart grille, and painted that White with Black, that should help you out on the front-end, and then maybe get the bottom grille blacked out to match the upper?

if it's in the ricer section, I'd stay away :P

That would be like adding chrome fender strips and door strips!!!

Stock headlights you say? maybe the picture is just dark, or the shadow from the paint making it look darker.

So get the blacker headlights too :P

Overall, headlights + TS/SLP grille + painting the bottom should REALLY look sharp.

Here is a stupid fast (and horribly done) photoshop of what I mean...

haha that doesnt look too bad. i was thinkin about doin the mesh on the ts grille chrome but black isnt too bad. i really wish they made siome projector lights for these damn things and i wanna paint the inside of the headlights white i think that would be sweet!
