Need Advice
« on: 07 February 2011, 12:02 »
Lately I can't help but thinking I'd prefer if my door and bumper mouldings would look  better black instead of been colour coded.

Whats everyones take on this and can anyone help me do a bit of photoshopping?

Cheers rio. The wheels are 18x8 with 225/40 tyres. Not sure how much its lowered by as its dropped on coilovers. So I've got the front arches sitting just above the tyres with nearly no gap. I'm guessing about 50-55mm
