Definately props on the Headlights and tail lights... looks awsome. Excellent choice on the black on black on black. Here's what my triple black 93' looked like.

Nice ok so im glad to see someone else with the triple black! :) The BMW headlights i used are from a 3 series with the square headlights. I found them on ebay for i think 30 bucks.
Heres the prices Well lets see .. 185.00 for the projectors. 225.00 for the 10,000k GPthunder kit on ebay. The BMW lenses i used were i think 30.00 on ebay then adhesives and fiberglass probably 30.00 Oh yeah get the good fiberglass reinforced wheels for your dremel!! 8 bucks for 3. LOL plexiglass i used behind the projector to cover up the projectors 24.00 from menards. i would say roughly 500 bucks. But worth it. oh yeah i already had an extra set of headlights out of a sable. so theres my monster garage ****"freebie!!"****

That looks sweet- now paint the chrome trim and it'll be stealthalicious! BTW- I'd buy your '94, but I can't afford kids right now... Or was that advertising the car?

Only losers and stupid people. :evilgrin:

Should have gone all black on the Slicers, IMO. Nice looking car nonetheless.

The black slicers look really good. I've always thought that would look good (black on black) on an SHO but I've never seen it done til now. Leaving the lip silver is unique too. Nice job

I think with the black pre 94s you NEED to leave that silver lip, it goes along well with the window trim. on 94-95s Id definetly go all black.

I love black rims..Give me a couple days, and Ill be showing off my black rims :)

I thought 93 was the last year of black exterior and interior? :shrug:

I think he means the chrome trim around the window was black in 95, whereas it was chrome pre-95. The chrome lip on the wheels goes well with the chrome trim on the pre-95 SHO's, but all black wheels would go well with the black trim on the 95's.

Woah, I totally misread that, my apologies. Also, I believe it was 94-95 SHO's that had the black trim, could be wrong but my 94 has it. My question is, I wonder if that held true with the SLO's? I recall my 95 SLO having chrome trim.
