I'm thinking about doing some modding on the exterior of my vehicle. I'm brand new to all of this, so bear with me. I'm driving a stock 01 ACR (silver). So far all I have is a nice black tint.

Here's what I want to get/do:

- side skirts (R/T) . Where can I find these, and can I get them already painted?

- Corner markers. Should I get some that are clear, black, or smoked? Where can I get these?

- Foglight. SHould I get a black/silver delete plate, or just trim out the edges? Where can I get delete plates?

- Headlights. Mine look like crap, you can't even see the bulbs. Can anyone point me in the direction of some good looking headlights that don't cost and arm and a leg?

- Taillights. I think these would look a lot better with a dark red or black tint. How would I go about doing this?

- Wheels. I have the stock silver wheels but would like them to be a gloss black. What's the best way to go about painting them so that they're gloss black and not flat black?

Sorry if I'm asking too much in one topic. I thought it would be better to ask a lot here than to post a bunch of new topics...

- side skirts (R/T) . Where can I find these, and can I get them already painted?
See this thread: They are down to blaze red I believe, so you would need to get them painted.

Or you can try to find them on ebay.

- Corner markers. Should I get some that are clear, black, or smoked? Where can I get these?
Clear tends to look best on Silver cars. but the choice is up to you. you can get them at http://www.modernperformance.com or ebay.


- Foglight. SHould I get a black/silver delete plate, or just trim out the edges? Where can I get delete plates?
Black would look better IMO, for contrast. Delete plates are hard to find. Try posting up in the want to buy section and check the sale section. And ebay.

- Headlights. Mine look like crap, you can't even see the bulbs. Can anyone point me in the direction of some good looking headlights that don't cost and arm and a leg?
New headlights cost money in general. I am selling a used pair if you'd like to see them. They are in good condition, usual marks on them, but no haze. 40 + shipping. If you feel like spending some money for new ones you can either get halogen or projector housings on ebay or at http://www.modernperformance.com

- Taillights. I think these would look a lot better with a dark red or black tint. How would I go about doing this?
You can use tint spray, available at http://www.modernperformance.com
Or you can use a overlay film, available at http://www.rockblocker.com , that's how I did it, looks great, nice and shiny, true smoke look. (see my signiture)

- Wheels. I have the stock silver wheels but would like them to be a gloss black. What's the best way to go about painting them so that they're gloss black and not flat black?
Getting some wheel paint AND clear coat. The clear coat is the more important part. Check http://www.duplicolor.com for their wheel paint and wheel clear. They have detailed instructional videos.

Anymore just ask away...

Yes for the love of god clear coat the wheels after you paint them, I only cleared one wheel and its fine, but the other 3 are starting to chip.
