Chrome looks REALLY good on the bright colors; yellow, orange, sonic blue, etc., I had chrome bullits on the sonic blue, and it looked AWESOME... really set the car off... but I don't think there is enough contrast with the silver

Well tint + mach 1 lip + grille delete = nice black accents to go with black rims if that's what you want... maybe even stripes?
Yeah, once i got more and more money to get that stuff i would eventually put that on the car to add to the black, but i don't think i am going to put stripes on it, i dont' want it to get tooooo busy on the car (if that makes sense)

with me i have blacked out head and taillights, windows, and a black stripe that comes out of the scoop, so black rims on my car would look awesome, but IMO either chrome saleens or black bullets.....

I don't have any straight side pics of my car so it's hard to shop those, so i'll just do some crazy google searching here the next couple days...thanks for the help guys, i think i'm going to go with the black or gunmetal (but can i go 17's front and 18's rear? or be better off just going 17's all around or 18's all around?)

what kind of springs would i go with? i want my car to be pretty low tho....like sportline eibach low, but i do want the staggered look, does that mean i have to get different types of springs in the front and back?

most springs are lowered in the front then the back for that reason... just get wider in the back and skinnier in the front - that makes it look mean as hell... I would stay away from the different sized rims though... I think drag springs in thier own right give you that stance... but im not sure?

sorry for all the stupid ?'s just trying to get all this figured out'n not screw it up.

I had it 275/40 17 in the rear on 17x9 and 245/45 17 in the front on 17x8... but if you're looking to go 17x10.5 in the rear i think its 315/35 17 in the rear, and you'd need 275/40-17 on 17x9 in the front but you'll also need wheelspacers or it'll probably rub.
