On this mod in particular, you know you've 1. made the car look cheesy, and 2. completely ruined the output of the high beams right? That part of the headlight is chrome for a reason.

I'm going to stop you right there! You can hate all you want and its not your f&%$ing car, I like the head lights the way they are. Its my car I paid for it I do what I want to it. If you don't like it then just keep on moving through the threads because quite frankly I don't want to hear it! Now I will admit that some of the stuff I've done has been cheesy but I'm doing the best I can with what I got! AND YES I KNOW THAT THE CHROME SERVES A PURPOSE I'M NOT AN IDIOT!!!

I really disappointed with a lot of your posts, I understand you don't like what I'm doing with my car and its not the standard you expect me to have but please understand I'm doing the best I can and none of this is permanent. I thought doing mods to a car was suppose to be fun and play with it to see what kind of results you can get. Some of you guys are extremely rude and I would never come onto your threads and bash your hard work especially if you were new to the club.

No offense, but when you post anything on the internet or practically anywhere, you are going to get criticism. Now, I do believe it took a lot of time to do these "mods", but they are distasteful. Painting interior parts, dressing up engine bay with tape and sharpie, and painting random red into headlights are not really mods (BUT I have seen some awesome painted headlight, but not yours). It brings back the late 90's. No more painted accents.

If you look through this forum, there are PLENTY of tasteful mods and rarely any bashing. Painting random things is not really modding, in my opinion.

Consult, before doing. Start all over. A nice vinyl overlay on the dash has been done and very tastifully done on these forums. Save your money, buy some springs or coilovers and maybe some wheels that aren't over-the-top flashy.

Like I said, that's my opinion. For the sake of the FR-S/BRZ community, if it's a norm for a Civic, don't do it to these cars.

Also, DRL are always on with these cars. Hence, would you ever see the red in the headlights besides being parked? Pointless.

PS. I put my two forum tags in.
