Ditto on the trunk only as long as it's a real LSX engine.
How many people could actually positively ID one? They are subtle and look good, now you just an emblem on your passenger tail light:).

I like the deck lid emblem but not the doors. Maybe consider some pinstripes like the factory to highlight the body lines. Btw nice ride!

Yes I do!! I forgot to add that to my needed parts post. Is there anywhere to buy tail lights for these? I'd be ok with remanufactured if I had to go that route. Lol

Trunk is okay. Maybe pull them off the doors, black one out and put it on the grille somewhere?
That car looks beautiful with all that black. Almost a shame to detract from that.

Thanks for all of the compliments guys, she has been a labor of love to say the least.

Im sorry to inform all of you but you're all wrong!

Haha!! Just kidding, looks like I'm going to have to dig up the heat gun. I think I'll leave the trunk for now and go from there. If anyone can send me in the right direction for a set of nice tail lights I would appreciate it. I have to replace my hood due to my not very smart self. When I was doing the engine work I pushed the car out of the garage to clean and the wind caught the aluminum hood. I just picked up the Goodmark 2" cowl for her. I know, not American made but it is what it is. And $472 shipped from Rock Auto sounded really good compared to what I spent to swap it over.

Thanks again for the help guys, it's appreciated!

Nice wheels!
They look vaguely familiar...

Thanks, I wanted an newer twist on an older style wheel. Once I saw the Foose Knuckle I was in. What wheels are on yours?

Mine are Foose as well, very similar.
Nitrous Thrust II’s, 18x8 front and 18x10 rear with Toyo Proxes T1R tires.
It’s pretty hard to go wrong with a classic 5 spoke design on our cars IMO. That’s why I chose these as well, a newer twist on a timeless design, same as you.
