I actually prefer the chrome handles/rings but black grill surround but your car still looks great! I think I will go with vinyl on my grill.

Took some more pics this weekend after washed... need to post them soon

Plastic dipped the front headlight and taillight rings. The grill came flat black with the aero kit. Thinking about vinyl for scuttles and gas cap...

Has anyone ever had the grille surrounds, head/tail light surrounds, etc. painted chili red? I love that color and want to use it somewhere on my car. Maybe the plastic fenders? Idk. Hoping to see some pictures.

Some of the Eclipse Gray photos I've seen seem to have some green in it. Does it?
Thanks!
