Default goodbye silver trim...

Here are some pics of my freshly painted Crossfire. I had the window trim, door handles, side grills and front grill painted black to match the rest of the car. I think it looks a lot better...

I wonder if they can put a steering wheel / dash / pedals on both sides using an american and over seas model! Perfect for those long road trips!

Looks too much like the base model. Should have left it the way it was.

:shock: Sorry mighty, I agree with James on this one. If you like it, that's what counts, but it does look like the 2005 base model from where I sit :cry:

But hey - what's all that green stuff behind the car? :roll:

Actually, in the black-it looks pretty good. Would probably look good in the white/alabaster as well. As for the graphite, the contrast compliments the looks of the car-so there'll be no changes here!





Graphite 6sp #16515

a good friend :wink: . I know it looks like a base model, but thats the ridiculous thing... it looks better. Plus the base model grill isn't black. I figure if you know that the base model is all black, then you know that the base model doesn't come with fog lights. Plus once I get these put on there, it will look even better...

I like the contrast on the white or graphite,saphire,all others would look better painted out around the windshield only,more than that is up to a persons own taste.It's like the nsx with the black top!It draws your eye right to it.

Hum.. but the meaning of Rice is FAR from what Mighty has done to his car!! I see no fins... no stickers... no high pitched muffler...

if you wanta call it VIP... then thats okay... cuz blackin everything out is called "VIP" style... such as that BMW he showed us before...

I think you might wanta get some new rims though Mighty!! Would look amazing with some blacked 5zigen's or something !!

and damn Mighty... you got some hot friends! you need to have a party or something for all of us Xfires I'd come out there for that!
