    Personally why not try something different? Like a patterned roof ( i know its been done before but depends on pattern) Also carbon roof would be better than black

    Save your cash and get some decent alloys

    Think the car looks to standard to pull it off tbh. Agree about alloys, and get it lowered too!

    iv been thinking the same, i'v not had it 2 weeks but i would really love to put my own mark on it
    definately look at at the alloys soonish
    im in two minds weather to slam her or not, id like to because it looks awesome, but at my age i cant afford for the insurance company to know and im not sure what would the people think when i sell it (no intentions to do this in a loonngg time)

    also i think smoking the back windows and putting black vinyl on the door pillar to blend it into the tinted window

    that would be an awesome setup jon
    i havent seen smoked headlights on a silver but iv seen some awesome black angel eye halo headlights with black backing... i think that would look the dogs haha

    agree with this. would look too out of place. start with small things such as alloys and lowering etc before the roof

    Smoked headlights,
    Smoked jewel taillights,
    Debadged grille,
    Gloss black badges on the rear,
    Gloss black vinyl roof,
    Gloss black VTR alloys,
    Etc.

    I think the black vinyl roof would look great, but yeah, a carbon roof would look alot better.

    Yeah ok, any thoughts on what alloys? I think black VTS Alloys would look great.

    Carbon looks too try-hard JDM in my opinion :/
    Everyone will know it's not real carbon so what's the point? It's not that pretty either really!
    Gloss black ftw

    the cars with full carbon wraps look discusting in my opinion... they just look like a dusty black unclean car, and i hear where your coming from nathan it does defeat the object. iv seen different colour carbon look vinyl which looks the dogs, i would want to do something that noone else has got if i went through with it
