Default Did Some Small Mods!

Ok so I finally did the headlight tint, came out terrible but the pictures make it look good.

And I also did the clip cover for the key, I'm not sure whether to paint it black gloss or to paint it the color of the car, any Ideas.

Headlights look unique, at one point i will like the headlights are wearing some cool shades from the 90s. The key hole clip is kind of cool but to make it right u need to paint it car color, and honestly i dont even see a point of doing it at all.

There really isn't a point to having it, I really wanted to see if it could be done. I will paint it to see the outcome.

Could do without the headlight tint. Doesn't look horrible but I feel like it might just be a little too much. Car looks awesome stock slammed on wheels.

The tint has been removed, I also brought the car to the dealership and they took the piece off, so gotta buy another one and find a way to keep it there.

glad you're having fun doing some small mods. watch out for the mod bug tho; once it bites, you're gonna have a hard time letting go!

i like the Key cover. it helps balance the black lock button. Where did you find the plug?
