So heres my ride. Nothing special I know. I dont want to do much to the body, Id like to do some engine mods but money is always a factor. Like the rims? 17" Reaction rims. Everyone says the make the car.

I plan on getting the windows tinted soon. I think its lame they didnt come stock with tinted windows but who am I to complain. Not sure if I want to lower it at all. I dont do to much racing so I dont know if I should. I have more pics but I cant figure out how to get them to shrink so I can put them on here. Any ideas?

Nevermind I got it. Hope everyone enjoys. Any Ideas for what I should do to it?

Looks good, seems like Tidal Wave is the best selling color of all the 04's. Welcome to the site and keep up the good work.

What color do you think I should paint it? Is there a special kind of paint to use?

im using plasti-kote paint made specially made for high heats(up to 500 degress f.)....and I have a rally red gt and I painted the outer part black and the innner red...

You could do it several ways...

Blue outside(leave the middle silver)...

All Blue....

Black Outside, Blue Middle...

Just cover whichever part your not doing in masking tape and paint away... :)

Also you made want to sand it down before you go at it. I had painted mine before and now im painting again, so I rubbed it down with a some 50 grit sand paper and smoothed it out with some 120 grit...

If you have any questions you can just send me a PM.
