Doesnt look terrible from far. However, you got paint on your tires. Even if you think that its no biggie you'll get new tires, when they put them on its gonna chip your paint around the lip of the rim. Happened to me the first time I did my rims.

Paint ur headlights black with white trim around the bezels. Lower it and get some thinner tires. Good paint job dude. Looks good.

I will wash the tires tomorrow, I don't know how I feel about tinting the headlights myself. I don't think I would be comfortable doing it, might just buy halo's.

I don't know what this forums obsessions with those lights are. I think they are tacky as hell, compound that with a naturally tacky car then it just piles.

Yea Just scoped it, pretty interesting. I am not sure if I should get my Retro's painted or if I should just buy halos. Because these do look like sex;
