Jeff's Evil Twin?

so I put these wheels on about a month ago or so but haven't posted any pictures up.. I have center caps for them but I have to paint them to match the black powder coat, another reason i never took pictures; that and they're impossible to keep clean. but i washed the car earlier and took these..

Very nice! I appreciate these cars so much just by the style and age. They're starting to stick out more and more.

Considered tints to match the black rims and trim?

Looks good overall. Not feeling all the different colored lights though. Clear headlights, smoked corners with blue in them, orange turn signals, yellow fogs...too much going on there.

I've always disliked black wheels. They're just so hard to see. It always just makes the car look like it's got dirty steelies on it. But to each their own, and the car is indeed very nice! I was beginning to wonder whatever happened to Dmad's semi-restored VE he picked up a few years back. I see you still haven't gotten those under-light filler rubber pieces

Amber bumper light are just stock lights from an NZ/AUS model

Fog lights are just stock SE fogs with yellow protective film. You can see where part of the film sticks off the glass on one of them..

All the different colored lights up front will only look right once my headlights are completed. Then the grill and headlights will match the UK corners and you'll only have black, orange and yellow. I also plan on having amber fender indicators as well so the bumper lights will have something to match. I agree that the yellow lights look out of place.

But ive got my jdm corner lights on it now so its looking as japanese as it can at the moment
