New guy here posting some pics of my LS

Just a LS but man I love this car!
Got it last month and was waiting until I got the springs put on before posting some pictures.Well I got them today and a few hours later they are on.Mods are 17" wheels,tinted the rear tail lights lightly with VHT night shades,eibach pro kit and painted the headlights flat black.I also removed the rear chevy logo and VHT the front one.Also on the headlights I VHT the orange reflector.Tell me what you think.





And a link to the rear

VHT rear tail lights

EDIT: What brand of rims are those?

Your car looks really sharp except for the tails. Just personal preference, I'm not a fan of the blacked-out tail lights at all.

What did you do to your front bow tie, it looks really awesome...

Beautiful LS, great photos too! Maybe a little more work and I could see it being a featured car, keep up the great work!

Yeah I was thinking the same thing about the antenna.Can I just hack it in half or something,then put the ball back on top?

Rims where from Wheelmax called NexO-5's.Nothing special,kinda cheap but quality seems pretty good to me.I like them

That pic of the tails don't do it justice,there maybe 2 coats of the nightshades on there,still alot of red showing through.More like a blood red,I like the way it came out.I didn't want it all completely black.

And the front emblem is VHT night shades too,2-3 coats with 2-3 coats of clear.Just enough for the yellow/orange color to show through .


And sshaner,I from O'fallon.Right outside of St. Louis.

I've seen a few people painting there inside of the headlight gloss black and after seeing a friend of mine paint his rsx flat black I thought it looked much better,so I went that route.

Better pictures to come,I was just excited to get out and snap a few after getting the spring in.

yup that thing would look sick slammed but i now thats hard to do on a daily driver. But i would suggest the rk sport 3 piece wing for the rear. It would really set the car off imo
