Those white accents need to go really, they stand out too much on FM. You got some good stuff going with the CF trunk, dont want to ruin the clean look with stuff that sticks out way too much.

but to be frankly though, it screams ricer! lol Keep the white on the inside, maybe get some clazzio seat covers with white inserts or white stitching. That way you can keep the that theme inside and go for a clean look inside.
but hey its your ride!

yeah well i'll see thanks for the info though
i wanted/want to do a two tone white and flint mica. what you think about that? every seen that?
I personally have never been a fan of two tone paint jobs..a lot of money for something that just looks really blah, so I'll have to have that same opinion of white with FM..I think that would just look way to weird..and not a good weird either.
Honestly I have yet to see a two tone that I realy like.

I'm not feeling the white on the outside either. Too much contrast for me. If you're going to stick with it though, I think you need more white to balance out what you've already got.

I like the gauges! I want the exact same set up...did you only swap the LEDs(I know precise soldering is required) and keep the original needles? I'm having issues seeing the stock amber in dim situations, where it isn't quite dark yet out. Are these bright enough to see during daylight? I have 35% tint on fronts and 5% on the rears.
Looks nice with the drop...I would lose the white and get black overlays, and black out the scion badge or go badgeless VRD grill. If you DO stick with the white...then get the exterior door handle vinyls to even out the random whiteness:

Then you'll need to address painting the rear emblem and possibly the antenna.
I have the same fogs but mine only have two black/three chrome horizontal stripes.

Nothing wrong with contrast but yet in instance it's a little too much going.
CF Truck...then white eyelids...white sidemirrors.
The car doesn't flow to me.
Not to mention...get a more aggressive drop, lol.

well right now i have trd lowering springs. i have some s.techs in my garage right now that i'm trying to sell. or do those have a better drop?
s-techs have alot better drop then trd's. 2.4" front 1.9" back, as opposed to 1.25" all around from the trd's.
the white really throws off the whole car, CF mirror covers and eyelids would look much better then white, and the EVO hatch fins scream rice aswell and ditch the "tow hook" look.
besides that it doesnt look half bad besides the white, evo fins, tow hook.

Swap the TRDs for the S-Tech...sell the TRD for 75-100 bucks.
For God's sake replace the the white on the car....
