New Pics of my dirty SSM Coupe.

Normally I'd feel guilty making a separate thread for just my car, but it's pretty calm around here. Here she is. I haven't washed her since before GMR.

I usually don't like blacked out headlights on SSM civics but on yours it actually looks pretty nice.

I've been contemplating painting the handles. I definitely want to paint the black piece on the trunk. DX = unpainted pieces apparently.

Ya that is what I was thinking. And instead of buying oem rear tail lights, I was thinking of "reding out" my rear ones so the whole light is red.

Thanks for the feed back guys. I definitely agree with the rim issue. I am looking for 17x8 in 4x100 with a time attack color scheme and a reasonable offset. I have yet to find rims that fit that criteria that aren't over $400 per rim and aren't Rotas.
The GC's really did workout. Good advice Mike, props to you.
