a headlight upgrade would definitely do wonders to bring your front to life more than any number of stickers will. The only thing the stickers did was make the headlights look more dingy. just saying bro

I'm hoping to trade the centers for another set of style 5 centers. Meanwhile, I'm trying to get the original bolts nickel, chrome and then gold plated for both of my sets of wheels(272 bolts in total), but I just found out that chrome plating is illegal here in Ventura, so I have to take them down to LA. The aftermarket gold bolts I installed on my black style 5's already rusted and I'm afraid that if I just gold plate the original style 5/style 19 bolts, they'll rust too since they're not stainless. Sucks.
