anyone else see a sport with the black painted to match?

I hope not....:D
I'm getting all the black trim around the bottom painted white to match the rest of the shagn wagon.
I will post pics of it done as soon as I get it back. Stopped by the collision shop today and took these pics..
Rims, exhaust, wood grain steering wheel and I should be all set.. I think!
 






When the 2011 MY was released there was a member here who did his Limited all white on the lower plastic trim, I thought it looked superb.

They should do that on the 16 Sport to set it further apart from the other models.

Thats kinda why I prefer the Tuxedo Black

Dont forget to do the door handles.

I'm loving the diode dynamics HIDs In both headlights and fogs.

Door handles are definitLy gonna get wraped in black. Thx for the reminder.
$1500 for all the paint work if anyone was curious

Yea not bad for no taping, all parts were removed prepped and painted.
Can't wait to see her all put back together.
 






I'm pondering doing this same thing with my ruby red. Can't wait to see the pics when completed!

I hope to have it back by Thursday. Pics on Friday.
 






Oh what a tease!!! I'm sure it will look superb can't wait to see the final result.
 












Looks sharp for sure
 






I'm going to leave the two outer side sections of the bumper "mouth" black as well as the whole rear lower section where the tow hitch cover and exhaust tips are.

Someone posted a link previously peter9 TY.
Plus it's not a sport painted to match. But it gives u a idea of what it should look like. I like
 






Hi Tmack I think painting you roof rails also in white would make your sport standout even more :)
 






All done super happy!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love it, nice job!

Very clean looking.

Please dont do the woodgrain steering wheel.....pretty please
 






Very nice!! I love the "Interceptor" badging on the front, reminds of The Road Warrior!!
 






Not my personal preference but it looks very clean and if you are happy then it's perfect.
