2015 XLT to Sport appearance project

[Boss302R]

We picked up a used 2015, i have decided to go ahead and go for the sport look, The blacked out accent pieces just look to good to pass up!!

For now im starting with the easy tailights, then move to headlights, grill, etc etc, wheels im not sure if ill go for the stock sport wheels or some other black wheels in 20" or 22" will have to do some photoshop to see what will look good.

Looks good. What's with the the fuel filler door? I see that the fender trim of the right rear has been removed. That wasn't connected to the tail light project was it?

Good catch, that's a separate project

 

[Skyrock]

Nice X!
Where did you bought the tail light tint?
I like it!

I ended up buying sport tails from eBay and selling my stock ones, same goes for the headlights, just put headlights on last night and removed the grill, grill is on order, so it will be grill less for now, will get pics tomorrow

I'm making it for my wife, she hates leather, sport only came in leather from what I know and she doesn't care for the turbo. This is really fun for me, plus I already sold one taillight and the stock grill haha

Next week black grill will be on

Looking good Boss tho it does seem to be the *hard* way to have the Sport look I think I read here somewhere that the stock sport rims are $714. each with no tires. Ouch. I do have the take off sport rims/tires with less than 1500 miles on them. I'm in SoCal but your sig doesn't indicate where you are. Based on the trees (no palm trees in pics) your somewhere in the south but not deep south, no Spanish moss I haven't advertised them yet but Will be asking $2200. plus shipping complete. Just a thought. Keep up the mods, I always like to see personalized cars

Where did you get your black grill from and how much did you $$ if I can ask?
