Now all you got to do is sand and paint the trim around the lights.

I think he meant the black around the taillights. IMO they would look better painted, because, unless it's a reflection, the driver's side looks a bit worn. Plus you painted the side mouldings, like the 10AE, which also has painted tails. But whatever you wanna do it's gonna look good! Is that a factory color? I think jon88se has a similar one and his looks great.

It's code 2H. Here's a pic of his for comparison.





Not to hijack or anything. Is this the same color though? Jon's looks a bit darker.

I have ground control coilovers inmy car and it's pretty low. I don't have a problem at all with speed bumps but you do have to watch driveways and parking lots that have those cement humps at the front of each spot. Car washes are also a no-no...gotta do it by hand but it comes out so much better.
