Default Blacking out an '03 coupe...

Hey, I've been searching for quite sometime looking for blacked out 7th gens, and haven't found much photo wise...

My wifes '03 coupe is black, and stock. I've been thinking about doing something different with it. I hate chrome for anything other than very small accents and the occasional emblem. So, was thinking about black projectors, and either black taillights, or tint. I had smoked vinyl tint on my '04 Mustang GT, and loved the look, but not sure if the same quality is available for Civics.

Just looking for opinions/photos... please...

Here are heads and tails I've considered.I like subtle mods, nothing flashy...

or these:

Not looking for halos really, but I like the look of the housings...

BTW, here is some tint I found. Is this worth it?

I've also thought about very suble front &rear bumper lips, and side skirts. Possibly a smallspoiler. I don't really like the front, but otherwise I like this car:

Then get the windows tinted, and find some wheels. I'm thinking black 17's with polished lip. I really like these, but want ones just like them with 5 spokes... no rivets, etc...

If I do all this I then might consider some performance or subtle interior mods, but its her daily driver, and she really doesn't care about going fast...

thatd look sick man, except i'd leave the taillights stock. Black projectors along with black rims w/ a polished lip and really dark tint looks so sick on black cars man. I say go for it, and you'll probably want to drop it when you get the rims.

My04, you don't like anything I picked out?
I'm not too sure about those taillights either. I just really wanted something different. I wonder how the round/black lights would look with the tint?

Yes, a small drop would probably go in with the wheels...

I found these wheels just now, and am kinda leaning this way instead of black with a polished rim. What do you think?
