1.black grills
2.reflector delete
3.ebay m3spoiler
4.blacked out roundels
5.other small stuff like that

eventually (and hopefully) they get to other things like wheels and a drop. Don't get my wrong all those mods can look good and tastefull (except the non-oem roundels IMO). I just don't think putting a trunk/roof spoiler on a stock car makes it look that much better. I would save those things for later on down the road. But once again, I'd rather save that money for some Stoptechs or something

I almost want to take off my black kidneys....maybe keep the middle section black and have the chrome outer ring...(i have the reverse right now, black outside with chrome slats)

I feel you man, i dont let lil things go unnoticed. I felt the same way about the chrome kidneys so i bought the black gloss cause i just "had to mod something" i just switched out the slates with chrome outer just to change it up now and then....just to calm that "bored" urge

Saying all of that, if your ex's comments really are getting to you and you want to change things up, I think a gunmetal/black combo could also look gorgeous on your car.

Wow that actually looks really really good. Thanks! It’s easier for me to picture what it would look like now!

You could have been rolling on steelies and you would have got compliments… Just kidding, I'm sure your car looked great with them!

Yeah that's kind of how I ended up with mine too. I was placing an order and wanted to save on shipping and was like hmmmmm, what else can I buy that's not super expensive haha. I have a feeling I’m going to be switching them around all the time too.

She's either looking to hurt you and just say anything that she knows will bother you - or she has absolutely no idea what she's talking about.
(Probably a little of both.)
No worries - your car looks awesome.
