Are you sure that's the same car? The wheels went back to pre 01' stock and the tails went to 02' stock. I'm guessing you threw on old wheels and new tails. I was thinking of painting my millenium silver to white. How's the quality? and how much was it?

i vote that you don't put the old wheels on the new car.

also, maybe lose the chrome b-pillar trim. looks too "loud" and it splits up the black window areas.

yea im sure, i converted everything, well almost from fog, tail light, chrome pillar, emblems, and i sold the dubbs because it was too heavy and too much chrome, yea it was silver and the white came out nice, i think its the best white and chrome, thats why i painted it white...
