I've often thought about that myself...painting them black...aside from the exhaust and being lowered a bit, I'm trying to keep it as OEM as possible...I'm even struggling with the tail lights and corners...JDM Spec or USDM Spec...Once I take it down that road I know there won't be any going back...decisions, decisions...Thanks Brad for bringing out the best in my car...and thanks to everyone else for the positive comments!
