Those pictures are amazing, that is why I love black cars.
I'm sure the eBayer I listed above would do either. They speaka brokened ing-rish, but they did a good job on mine. :)

Black cars at near sun down look great when they're clean.

Skippy1827: The wet look comes from the LG. It's awesome stuff. Plus it goes on soooo easy compared to wax. My arms have always been sore after waxing and no soreness at all with the LG - lol. Plus, a can of the stuff will last a loooong time too.

Yeah, I know! I like getting suggestions. Keep them coming if you have more. If it wasn't for all the ideas I get from this site my car would probably still look the same as it did the day I got it.

I have thought about painting the grill in the past. I'm not sure if I want to though... I'm still deciding.

Here's a before pic from the stealership's website (can you see any differences? :lol:):

Yeah, I'm probably not going to paint the grill. I have something I want to try with it instead... We'll see if I do it...

Btw, I forgot to mention...bent chrome 5 spokes on a SE looks awesome, just because we all know thats now how they are supposed to be. Its like having GXP rims on a SSEi.

I LOVE the bent chrome 5 spokes...very nice looking rim. The GXP rims should have been chrome IMO.

Gotta love a good shiny black car. :wink:

Those chrome wheels really compliment the black, too.
