That's beautiful. One thing I've noticed with all the VR color on plastic, they fade. Saw a 10 year Ferrari 384 GTS, didn't seem to have this problem (but then they're not out in the sun alot anyway).

I think that the paint must just be cheap as **** on these cars, because in the 6+ years that I have owned it, the car has either been in the garage or undercover..

Who did your pettit flares? I was admiring them at the BBQ a few weeks ago. They look great. What size/offset wheels did you go with?

I haven't had any problems with peeling.. just with fading, especially on the plastic parts.

I have larger pics, but the forum will only take ones that are smaller than 100kb.. Unless anyone knows another way.

Love 'em! I went with the FM-5 because they were easier to clean, but I really like the FM-10 look.

Aesop... I think that there may be a problem with your mail server, or the pic i'm sending could be too large. I'll resize them and send them out again.
