An idea I am tossing around

So, I have been thinking about having my stock sport rims powdercoated white on my NBP Fit...along with the white theme, how do you think a set of TW headlights would look? I bet someone would want to trade or something.

Anyone good with photoshop care to take a jab at doing a concept picture for me so I can really see if my idea is gag-o-rific or hawt?

Thanks...

Be careful of powdercoating wheels. The heating process they use can weaken aluminum rims. Painting is safer.

I think it would look interesting.

I may be willing to trade headlights with you.

Rinsk, where are you located?

The more I imagine it in my head, the more I think the TW headlights might look horrible on the black car...was hoping to find someone local to me to test it first.

well, i dont think colorado is too local for me...im in california.

i tried to make a image of a black fit with white lights, and it came out alright. after it was done and sitting there on my screen, i just started to think thats how they would normally look. to me at least, it doesnt look nearly as bad as one would imagine.
