I'm usually a fan of the sport rails, but for your theme #2 works well. Go GTRs or 22"s! You live in Cali, I wish I could run 22"s year round. Maybe you can trade your rails with someone locally plus cash too.

Thanks for the replys all, they're really helpful. I will go with #2, looks best to me as well. I've always loved sport rails, but black is clearly the way to go now with my theme (as for trading rails, aren't the black ones plastic? If so, I'd almost prefer keeping the silver ones and painting them black). As for the wheels, there is a 22" rim I've loved forever (gloss black TSW Jarama, and would do the lip Ivory Pearl), but won't I have issues being so low and probably having to run such a slim tire? I don't want to hit a pot hole and break a wheel. I have Parada Spec-X tires now and love them, so I'd prob go with those if the sizing permits.

ETA: How much could I get for a set of stock 20s that don't have any damage aside from peeling paint (probably need to be stripped and re-painted)?

^even with 22s you can still run a decent sized side wall. I wouldnt worry about damage. I had 22s before I got my 21s and I would have gone bigger if they made the wheel in bigger sizes.
 
Here are a couple shots at my cabin in Pine Cove (Idyllwild, CA). Had a great time relaxing this past weekend with movies, the fire, and great food.

Thank you :)

Here are a couple shots of my new rear passenger ceiling lights and rear cargo area lights from "sprtfx" These lights are awesome, everybody should get them.

Looks great, top notch LEDs by sprtfx! I like the LED look inside of the interior and I think it works really well in black or wheat interiors. Personally, I haven't got them yet because I have brick interior and I think the LEDs throw the color off. I like the warm look from the incandescent bulbs on brick. Do you have LEDs in the bottom of the doors as well?
 
I understand what you're saying. Might be worth it to buy one to install and see if you like? Although they are $25 for a set. I'm waiting for the rest of the kit to be made, so no vanity, glove compartment, door bottom, or center ceiling LEDs yet. The bottom of the door lights are throwing me off now because they are drastically different from the ones inside the car, so I hope the other lights are made soon!
 
UPDATE: Currently in the process of purchasing a set of 22" black mesh wheels. Will be painting the chrome lips ivory pearl. Going for a flush look, so I will be using spacers. Probably gonna need to trim the inside of the wheel well moldings too, which will require a repaint of these trim pieces.

CONSIDERING: Painting the whole roof rack black, or removing the crossbars and painting the rails ivory pearl. Will most likely photoshop this once the rims are on.

Had some fun with Photoshop this morning:

In that case, you could paint or you could probably swap yours for a black set and get a little cash as well.

FX4BR, I absolutely love your avatar and everything about how your FX looks. The roof, the rails, the bumper, the headlights, grill, wheels, everything. Totally awesome!

Thank you very much! Modding the FX is so fun, it's so difficult to stop :eek.: And IS is definitely the place for me haha.
 
Picked up my new 22" NAD4 wheels, tires, and spacers today from JXFX35 (Jon). Such a nice guy. Thank you for the smooth and pleasant transaction, and for posting such an awesome set of wheels! :) Now, time to get the wheel lips painted ivory pearl and the wheel well trims rolled. Here are a couple quick pics after I got home:

They will look great and unique on your FX with white lip IMO. Congrats on your purchase:top:
 
I think black face and white lips would look great with your setup, congrats on your purchase.
