Most parts stores sell plastic razor blade looking things that are great for sticks ( dont scratch the glass ). Just get a spray bottle with some soapy water and one of those plastic blades ( I like to call this my rice-be-gone kit )... ;)

BTW- I have to agree with those above, I wouldnt get the lovers either but then agian they would look pretty silly on my convertible...

but then again, everyone has a look they were aiming for. Unfortunately the stickers didnt blend into it the way I thought so they are gone, not hurting my pocket, maybe out 25 bucks... As for the headlights, they may not look amazing in the day but there a show stopper at night and better then the stocks when it comes to seeing well. Louvres give it that older more bold look i wanted and I like them. The stripe accents the body a bit, still debating if I really really like it. If the stripe goes, then I will have to get some black rims, maybe Juco can suggest some, considering your rims. Any a decent brand of caliper paint as well.

What brand are those side louvers?

Mud flaps are staying. I dont care if they look stupid. I like them and they work alot in the crap weather and streets I live on. The louvres are astron hammond like the back one. Ebay is same price as sites except I can use paydevil from my bank acct and not my card which makes it easier.

*update* stickers are removed from the front windshield. Now the headlights might not be appealing on a black on black car yes, but they work well and they are a great show mod. Once I start working on front end they will go with the additions i add. But for now the exterior is good. I dont think i will work on that for a bit, couple go fast mods i want to do.

I like the lights, but IMO I would change out the grill and delete the fog lamps. I think that would be bad ass. Check out stickercity.com for a slight tint on the head lights and even the tails.

car looks great. like the louevers, I have mudflaps too, and trust me, I have them on there to protect my investment. after having chips and scratches all up on the rear side of the bumper, $35 flaps are worth it.

but I kinda have to give a big thumbs down to the headlights. Not a big fan of those, honestly I think they're a bit ricey.

rocker panel stripe looks good and everything else looks good.

stickers on the windshield gotta go to. Ricey as well.

now let me ask you since I've been putting my car in car shows for the past 2 years and you say this is a "show car", are you looking to do an american cars car shows or a ricer/import shows? no offense by the stickers on the front windshied and the headlights, import/ricer is what's lookin in my view.

American Muscle.

The stickers have been removed....and Im planning on getting the spray to smoke the headlights down a bit in the front. I ordered non-chrome, but all they had was the chrome. I like the functionality and look at night when they are on, But during they day they dont compliment the car.

they make tint covers and tint film for the headlights, I'd invest in them.

your next mod should be a CDC Classic Chin spoiler. that would give your car a great additive look!
