Car looks sick man. The old headlights weren't looking too bad but the blacked out headlights with the black rims just looks awesome. Great job man

I was all excited about those rims untill I saw the 3G. Then I got really sad cause I really liked em and cant drop 3gs on rims. Hey does anyone know how much it usually costs to have rims put on?

i think you should have kept the pinstiping, i think it looked good, as far as everyting else goes, glad you took those tails off, and those rims are hot.

It looks 100% better now. Good job.

MTV should cancel the show "Pimp your ride" and implement a show called "From rice to nice". The show will teach ricers the art of making a nice car.
