Here is my thread where I did all the chrome in matching Tuxedo Black and did the black plastic in gloss paint.

Here's a picture of mine. I'm still undecided to leave the fog lights the way they are, or just get black ones and black out the side badge. Brake calibers to be painted yellow this weekend

Guessing that's luminex headlight tint? How much are your headlights affected? (Looks great btw!)

I couldn't tell you the exact tint, as the place I got it done said they only use 1 type of tint for both headlights and tailights (I never asked the name of the tint). The visibility is hardly changed, maybe slightly less dimmer at night, but nothing that would effect driving or have the cops pulling you over at night

Nice! How hard was it to paint them? I want to do mine - I have a silver SHO and want to do something a little different than the common red & yellow (NOT that it doesn't look good) but I think a blue color would look good against my silver paint and black wheels. But not sure if I should paint or buy the covers.

Now LOWER that thing too!

I didn't end up painting the calibers myself. The guy at the dealership did a bad job painting my wheels black when I bought my car in February. He resprayed all of the wheels and painted the calibers for me when I brought it back.

As for lowering, I just got out of a Focus ST, and quite enjoy being a bit higher on the road. I have a lowered supercharged Mustang GT for being lower to the ground. Plus, my chin spoiler already scrapes somewhat easily. I don't think lowering it will help much lol

I don't blame you for not wanting red or yellow on a silver SHO. Blue would look really sweet on a silver SHO. I had 2 thoughts when I decided to go with yellow on my SHO. My murdered Mustang GT already has red calibers, so not doing that twice. The other is I wanted a color that would pop against the black, but at the same time, not look tacky. I had the thought of doing either a neon green, or orange, but I decided to be a basic bitch and go yellow :lol:

No, don't get me wrong - that yellow looks great on a black car! It's hard to decide what will look best.

I agree. I like your idea on blue to go with your silver. I'm thinking like a nice navy blue would really pop on a silver SHO. Just my 2 cents!
