    I like all white!!!

    I like the current black/white. The all black would only look good with tinted turn signals.

    I don't name my vehicles so your safe. "Turbo Van" is the closest to a name it's gonna get.

    Since the turn signal lenses I replaced are rock chipped, I'm thinking of putting the wire mesh I have covering my bumper cut-outs over the turn signal lenses. It'll look like tint so we'll see.

    There is no logical reason to call an Engine a motor.

    I think with the white around the headlights and the black grill it looks like an AstroVan...

    I thought about that but I'm not sure I'd like it. If anything, I'll do it just to "out white" Alan.

    Re: Show Off Your Mini!!

    I got my new grill emblem to replace the factory "Dodge" emblem. I'm thinking since the grill is already black, tape it off, leave the grill inserts black, and do the frame/supports white. What do you think?

    Re: Show Off Your Mini!!

    I don't get the allure of the sealed beam conversions.
    I like the factory style headlight just buy some new replacements from rockauto to brighten up the front.
    Then get one of the high/low slim line hid kits from www.ddmtuning.com for less than $45. They work great.
    That's what I did with MeanMini, and now you can see the road at night better than ever.

    I would rather spend $40 on replacement sealed beams than $160 for new headlight assemblies. Also I wanted to paint my headlight bezels and grill. The CV van parts aren't chrome plated.

    I bought new headlight assemblies on ebay for $36 each. Easy and look good, and so much brighter.

    Re: Show Off Your Mini!!

    Hey, its all good. Its personal preference. These are a bit more aerodynamic because they aren't cupped like the CV ones, but they are chromed. And I don't think you'll notice it with yout srt4 power.

    Re: Show Off Your Mini!!

    The "allure" is to get a housing with a decent beam pattern and actually throw some light where you need it without blinding oncoming traffic.
