Painted Viking wheels - AWESOME. That looks freegin great man, what did you use on the wheels, same tinting spray or paint, if so what kind? Looks great, maybe now just remove the chrome strip in the front and smoke the side markers and you'll be set. Nice 900.

mike, sorry to thread jack too guys, but i was reading about your manifold thread on tsl...my opinion stay away from the obx...they are ****ty and it will crack on you in about a month, especially if you decide to external:lol: i i was going to work with a guy around the New England area about possibly doing a manifold setup for a decent price but decided to part the car out instead and build the vr-4, i will try to find his website...he speicializes in honda b18 series and **** like that, but everyone says he does a good job and he might be able to a custom job if he has the flange that goes to the head...like i said i will try to dig up the website and it might be able to help you out...
Looks good....with the headlights done, otherwise I find the headlights look too square...like a...Volvo! Not sure how safe all that is in particular doing the headlights....I don't find mine bright enough as is. I've always read that you shouldn't 'out run' your headlights, which is not difficult to do with the OEM set-up.
Would be cool if you would paint all of your badges the same colour as your wheels.....keep the gun metal theme goin''.
And what's with the chrome strip on the font bumper....that's gotta go! Might want to straighten and raise that tail pipe too.

wheels look great....i bought the same paint a little while ago but wsa a bit hesitant on using it on my silver car, but after seeing yours im deffinately gonna do it.
Abdukted, I love the looks of your wheels with the unpainted lip. I do believe I'll paint my vikings that color and have that set for snow tires with my fondmetals the good for the rest of the year. As long as I own the vikings...might as well dress em up a bit. Very nice car
thanks I got them for winters and they needed refinishing so I did that for about 20 bucks in paint and sandpaper and masking tape
