Opinions wanted.....
Okay guys, I know that everyone here has an opinion (and expresses it freely!), and I want to know what you think of this idea. I have a black '06, and I'm thinking about the whole car. What I mean by that is getting dark tint for the windows (I'm doing that regardless), the tinted film for the headlights, taillights, and sidemarkers, FR500 wheels in Anthrocite, and getting an Aluminum billet grill and having it anodized to match the wheels. I'm also getting the Legend rear wing, side and window scoops.
So, opinions?

The tinted headlights probably isn't the best idea. I'd suggest you take chrome/black approach. The grill, leave billet, get the chrome FR500C wheels, get chrome 40 badges (something to put in the pony flag spot on your front fenders so the side has a bit of balance), get chrome tail light surrounds (I have these, I think they look marvelous, really harkens back to the 68's chrome tail light surrounds), and chrome exhaust tips. I think it looks mean. I was also looking at the anthracite wheels (the mrt knock offs).

RE: Opinions wanted.....
Personally I think it would look badass for the most part, though I agree with Goliath about chrome accents really standing out - it would make for a dynamic contrast. I also +1 the not tinting the headlights...get a removable cover so you can see at night and in bad weather.
Also, my advice is to keep it legal - otherwise you're going to spend a fair amount of time looking at red and blue lights in your mirrors.
