I've never done anything to accessorize any vehicle I've ever owned. The most I did was put a subwoofer in my high school beater-car (89' Geo Prizm, yeah baby.)

That's a nice looking rig. We just picked up a new 2015 Outlander SE, same looking diamond white. Only thing is, I've got the naked roof. No rails, just covered slots for flush-mounts. I see you've got some black rails for your racks. I've spent most of my shift at work searching the internet for a lead on some. Mind if I ask where you got your set up on the roof? Also, looking to dip the wheels as well. Any pointers on dipping?

I recommend searching parts for your under 2014 instead 2015 since they are exactly the same and have more option than 2015 ( looks like they dont really update the compatibillity)
as for dipping the rims, I never took off the rims to paint it although its easier and better when its off.
-Wash rims, wipe dry and with alcohol after.
-cover the rotors and brake calipers. I used old rags/towels or trash bags
-Coat tires with tire shine so when you paint the rims the paint will not stick to the tires and really easy to come off.
-Spray away! I go each rims and waited 15 mins (or until dry). Do it 3 times with a total of 3 coats or more if you want.
Thats it! clean up, take the excess paint out of the tires and take the rags/towels off the rotors and admire your masterpiece.
Take a pic then post here lol.
P.s.
you might find some light coverage on some areas when you move the car, you can respray it on that specific spot and it will look uneven but dont worry, it will even out itself.

Awesome, thanks for the help! Yeah I tried getting ahold of my dealer's service department and they're clueless on the roof rail, all they have are the racks that mount to the naked roof inserts, typically where a rail sits... Investigating that rail system on eBay, and many like it; they seem merely decorative... 3M tape, no bolts/screws to attach the rail to. Don't think I'll be hauling anything with these decorative rails, lol. Thanks for the time you put in eBaying that. I'll search under 2014 now that I know 2014 and 2015 are similar.
Why dont you just install a roof rack crossbar without rails? They are available for $360 mitsubishi branded. Add a Side wind deflectors too to make the Outlander look more aggressive lol

Are those tires the stock/factory size? They look a little beefier than the Toyos that mine came with. I'm in no rush for tires, these will last me a couple years before I dog out 7-800 bucks on new tires again. You have the leather interior, or is it the leather/sport cloth stuff?
