New to site - a few questions

[LSinCT]

I recently purchased an 04 LS V6 Black/Black back in November. I am looking to do some cosmetic upgrades now that we are coming out of winter. I recently purchased and LSE Grill and black eyebrows and am getting ready to put some 18" Helo Diamond Rims on next week, now that the salt/snow should be gone (soon). I see that some of you have painted calibers and was thinking with these rims, that would look good. I was hoping you could help provide some info as to the process and paint that works best. Attached is a pic of the rims and once I get these mods done, I will get some pics up on the site. Thanks in advance and love the site!!!

Hey, do you have pics of the eyebrows? I was thinking about getting some but I wasn't sure if ti would be noticeable on a black LS.

I have black and put on a eyebrow.

Thanks. I'd have to see it up close to get a good idea if I liked it our not.

I too was thinking of the eyebrows. They look nice, I just made my grille in to the LSE grille. It looks great.

I'm working with a company to start offering the plastic/urethane type of eyebrows instead of the vinyl eyebrows. It would be paintable so matching the color of the car would be even better. The standard color would be gloss black. Also, real carbon fiber would be offered as well. I've got too many coals in the fire it seems right now but it sure is exciting!

excellent. My LS is black so right out of the box should look fine.

Any idea of a time frame for the plastic ones?

Not really. I just sent them my templates. Hopefully not too long because they are doing the B-Pillar inserts too.

Cool, keep us posted.
