paint looks orangish about to clean up the body on mine and repaint to a similar red to avoid doing the engine bay and trim. Can you tell me this paint code? it looks good, post up some picture for sure when you get it all finished and together.

the side moldings on the bumper are not to far off from the door moldings. it doesnt look bad. i will get more pics on monday when i go get it. and the wheels are on there way as we speak. sportmaxx 513 15x8 0 offset with 215 50 15. and i will get the paint code on monday and post it up, it does look a bit orangey in the pics but if you see it up close it is very red.

Honestly, I don't mean to offend you but I think it looks like crap.. The color, maybe.
