yeah... thanks for the advice.. never thought of that =] you cant EXACTLY tell, but those rims are Black & Chrome... I have ordered clear corners...

What do you think about Chrome Strakes and/or Fender Vents?
I'm not going CHROMED OUT or anything, but to give it some more contrast and definition to match the rims... what do you think?

and errrrrr.. im so pissed, some ******* in my neighborhood decided to either try to steal my car, or break in quietly.. and were mashing a flathead screwdriver into my keyhole and ruined it.. any idea on the cost to fix this?

don't do the strakes. some like it some don't. I am one that doesn't like it. too much chrome is rice...

not sure I can help you out on the whole key thing really hope that it isn't too costly. pisses me off that people do that stuff.
