I like where you are going with it... I used to have smoked taillights but i went back to stock (after a while i started lovein the stock red tailights)... you've got to debadge it!! when it comes to the interior i would just get everything done in black (not a big fan of the carbon fiber look, but that's just me)...Maybe throw some fog lights along with the RS lip??...hmm?

The RS2.0 lip is on its way and I forgot to mention I did order fog lights for it since I love the look of them. They both should arrive at the same time not gonna put them in till I get a new front bumper since I slide on black ice and smacked a curb I push the dent out some but I can notice it so it bugs the crap out of me and the RS1.0 CF rear lip is back order right now. Also it helps I have 2 waterfalls for my car so if I grow tired of the carbon fiber look then I go back to stock not a big deal

Okay guys I am going to debadge the "tC" off the car later today when the sun comes up. lol. the carbon fiber i am getting for the inside is like di-noc not really glossy but more a flat carbon fiber look which i really like and might look good i will see but hey if i dont like it sell it then put stock back in. Getting a wire tuck to the engine bay soon so i wont have the car for about a week i will be driving around old school in my 95 Monte Carlo with 2 12' subs. lol. I cant wait for my coilovers to come in and then my new rims so i can start getting that stance look going, going to have some mad camber in the back since i am gonna push the rims out with spacers.

Been awhile i finally got around to posting pics up here. I got around to debadging the "tC" off the back looks clean took awhile to get the double-sided tape off but looks good and my new raderwerks rims should be coming in soon. Got some stock parts laying around if you need anything just pm me.

I was still going back and fourth about what the rims will look like on my car if i should get the all polished or black with polished lip. Took me the longest time to pick but i finally did cant wait for them to get here when i said i ordered them on the 30th i will still trying to pick what would look best since i couldnt find a black tc with them on but i went for the classic look and got all polished

i would love to get a badeless garnish but funds are low since i been out of work for about 3 weeks since i put my 2 weeks in at my old job and my new job kept pushing the start date for me later and later hopefully i start this monday. I got my RS2.0 Front Lip for my car waiting on new bumper since i slide on black ice and hit a curb so mad about that. Once i get the new bumper i will install the lip on it and have my buddy paint it at his shop for 100 bucks. When i get my tax return in alot of the real magic will happen. I will keep you guys posted. Not sure if i should go wire tuck on the engine or turbo it. Give me some input please

Wire tuck is beautiful, but turbo is awesomness. My buddy is about to attempt a combination of the two.
