I'm trying to decide what to finally do with my car. I'm getting my Racing Hart wheels powdercoated flat black this winter, to look somewhat like in the pic ( they are original silver now). I'm getting OEM CTR sideskirts also. So just picture my car like in the pic and add skirts to it. What do you guys think of the "Nightrider" look? I think im set on it, but wanting some opinions. Thanks. Justin:D

that looks good. the DC5-R side markers look sick on the nightrider look. just tint the shit out of your windows and leave all the bumper reflectors alone. and if you dont already havwe a pair of dc5R sidemarkers, pick up a pair. good luck man..

You should paint the calipers red or black. That would go better with the rims.

Same as our side markers but in amber.
Direct fit.

I was doing something similar with my si, you might wanna look into tinting your bumper markers and tail lights. That would you put your ep over the top.

Here is what my ride looked like...

I decided the total nightrider look wasn't for me, but I'm still sympathize with it. I tinted my sidemarkers, and I totally recommend it on a black EP. I parked next to a stock black EP once, my car looked way better than it, and I hadn't done much more than tint my sidemarkers at that point. Paint them with glass paint, do a search and you'll find some good pictures.

I had planned to tint my headlights when I got the fogs to help with the lost light output, that ep looks pretty sick. It looks like he painted the outside of the headlights to match the car, id like to see a closer pic if possible.

Powdercoating shouldn't run you over $200 for the full set. I work in the Aerospace industry and have already quoted it with a few vendors.
