What did you do today to your 3/S?

it looked wierd normal to me and plus I like how it looks when done right on the right color of the car, and what i like is what should matter the most IMO.... however Bumper, hood, drivers front fender, and both side skirts are going to be replaced and body is going to be sanded and preped for new paint. I honestly HATE the damn color, that's why I will be repainting the car back to original..

http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...35926716_n.jpg this was before clear coat...looked faded and flat... I made sure to keep the nightshade light enough that you can still tell if my driving lights are on during the day.

The clear coat really cleaned things up....

Once I get a matching brake light with the amber corner like the otherside, I will probably strip them of the nightshade... Acetone is your friend.

I guess it fits better with the black wheels than I expected. I just hate blacked-out lights in general. It always looks like people were trying too hard to 'be different' and just did it because it was cheap.

I like it only on certain cars with certain colors... as a nice accent to other cars. it looks dirty tho so it fits the rest of the car. I would not do it on a really clean car.

I have my tails and corners smoked on my white 1G TT... I also have the wheels powdercoated black... I just like how the blacks accent each other

my wheels are also powdercoated black :)

Started painting some of the parts for my car... I decided to go with a pearl black, it has white, blue, and green pearl in it. I'm liking it a lot so far, and can't wait to step back and see the whole car this color :D
