Got some work done by 180customs !

so i took a trip down to NYC to get some work done to my car took WAY longer then expected due to some complications from them but over all i like it.

Headlights painted
IronMan LED
Side Strip LED
Grille Painted
HID Fogs + painted fog rings
they smoked my taillights too which wasn't on the list of what i wanted but there was 2 black g37s there that day and they put it on my car instead of his lol i didnt notice it till i was getting gas on the way home.
i wanted tsx lens but they didn't have time to put it in "or they forgot to idk..lol"

they changed my license plate bracket too i should charge them for free advertisement but alex was a cool dude so ill let it slide :P

BEFORE:











AFTER:
















my photo skills doesnt do these lights justice i can't take night shots for the life of me lol

Looks pretty good but I would've personally left some stuff in the lights alone instead of painting everything in it. IMO it looks better when there is some contrast especially on dark colors like black. Overall, it turned out nice. Congrats!

im going for that all dark look =P updated with the taillights and no they didn't charge me for the taillights cause they didnt know until the next day when there's no smoke taillights for the other guy lol. they call me back and said i can get my stock tails back or get a really good discount on the smoke taillights on my next visit. i don't know what happen i guess it was a really hectic day for them. im an easy going guy i didnt mind waiting longer but my gf was getting mad lol.

It looks good. But I was thinking the same thing. I would have left the area around the projective chrome and maybe a bit more.

If our cars came with painted headlights, we'd chrome them out as a custom mod LOL.

I'd love to see pics with the lights on.

Smoked back lights look good too, bro.

can you post some "action" shots? like when the iron man is lit up, etc. thanks!
btw, how is the smoked taillights finish? it looks pretty glossy, like oem, and not like a vinyl, which is good!
all these mods must've cost some pretty pennies

Wow those tails look so clean and glossy. I would still prefer the housing done in gloss black rather than flat though.

updated with them fired up! im really bad at taking pictures thats the best one i could come up with after 20 mins of trying lol

and the reason i went with the flat black housing is cause i wanted the projector shroud and side strip to stand out with gloss black

i believe the taillights are painted with translucent black paint and finish with an automotive clear!
