And now the Headlight covers arive!
I also put the K&N logo stick on the side from the air filter, and I also just put in Silverstar lo beams bulbs. Its soo much brighter! I'll get a night pick later

Cut Throat... That is like a night and day transformation. Excellent look man!
I believe every car looks better with tinted windows. Really makes the paint job pop. And the combo of the tinted windows, the headlight covers, and the taillight covers really makes that metallic green paint and your rims pop!
I agree with who ever said you need to remove the GTS logo.
When I had my 91 Z24, I had the GTS headlight covers. Three times actually, since the first two sets got stolen. But my point is, you'll need the brightest headlight bulbs available to compensate for the tinting of the headlight covers.
If I were you, I'd go with Silverstar Ultra headlight bulbs.
I'm surprised you didn't go with VHT Nightshade spray tint for your tail lights. Tint to your desired darkness, then hit it with some clearcoat.
The 5th gen font windshield banner is great. Too bad they couldn't curve it slightly to match the top edge of the windshield. But that's nit-picking. Looks good!
Overall, an excellent transformation. Great job!

Thanks guys for the comments. I've been planning all this since the day I bought the car and looked at whats available, about 6 months later and I get about half of what I want done to it finished. Ran into a problem this week though, my alternator ist kaput. So my uncle is coming to the rescue later and swapping in a more powerful one to keep it running, plus all of the extras I put in like my new headunit, subs, and new bulbs.
Taz, I actually did put in the Silverstar headlight bulbs and it made a hell of a difference! I thought about tinting the tail lights, but my dad said get the covers so I can pull them off if needed to for anyreason.
Headlight and taillight covers are a real gray area in my area. Since my dads a cop I will most likely get out of anykind of ticket or citation if a cop was feeling dickish enough to pull me over for that.
