Default GIMME YOUR OPPINIONS!!!!!

So...I'm in love with my new xB! Just bought it a week ago so shes stock. I got it pretty basic too with PIMPIN' in mind! LOL! I got her in black and I have a couple of things I wanna do to her but I want your oppinions first (after all, you do know more than anyone what looks tight! Am I right?! ). Haha! I wanna put some dual Halo projector headlights with the black housing, black rims with the polished lip, tint the windows DARK, and put some kinda grille on her(-cough-SUGGESTIONS-cough-). Just for starters anyway! Too much black? Should I get the Halo's with the clear housing? What about the rims? I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!! Don't even get me started on the tail lights! Ahhhhh! If anyone has pics of there black box with the black Halo's and the black rims with the polished lip PLEASE post em! I wanna know what it'll look like! LOL! Thanks for all your info! :D

I'm not that big of a box fan...but the black theme will look tight. Halo Headlights with black housings look good I saw them on one in Cali, black wheels with chrome lip...yes, and some sort of black grill would look tight.

The Blacked out look it pretty sweet... I'd keep chrome housings and chrome lips, and use chrome in the right subtle places to offset the black.... maybe grille... but... the ALL black look is a little too much IMHO.

Check out the Open Deck grille. It would probably compliment what you are trying to do with all the black. The whole black theme is not my style, I have a black one of my own with ideas, but remember that it's your car. It should scream out who you are. Best of luck and enjoy bro!

Too much black??? Can you have too much money?? I'd think not, the thought is just crazy..j/k.. as mentioned there is a lot of personal preference involved.(i.e. I love the black out theme, especially the headlights and others will hate it...) Best thing to do before modding is to attend some car show(large and small, sposored and local) because seeing the mods first hand will give you a much better idea than pictures.

Personally i think that the Black on Black with polished will look great. Coming from a Subaru background they have always looked great blacked out. Good luck

I LOVE the lights and the grille! I would want the top grille to carry down to the lower vents...more uniform.

I LOVE IT!

Here is my 2006 BSP xB with 18" Black Motegi Racing FF7 wheels (with a polished lip). I'm also lowered 2 inches (by www.randode.com ).

My headlights are still stock for now.

I live in Chandler, AZ so if you are local and would like to check out the wheels in person feel free to buzz me (evenings only please). 480-593-0441

Do what you like.
I like both the black on black and the black with chrome.
You cant go wrong and you will have tons of fun in doing so.

I have to agree with BiggJ here....Black on Black Looks Bad A$$. I would personally go witht he black halos. Hit up Moondog here in the D&S region. He has two boxes with the Halo lights and he can probably tell you the best place to get them from. I would also go with a wheel with a polished lip too. Just remember that you need to do what you are going to like and not care what others think.
