i painted the rims gold, the car looked this way for one summer. the front bumper, rear bumper, mirrors, and fender inserts did not match at all. the painter painted the car and then finished the rest 2 months later. clearly temperature was colder and he missed a coat or two of the orange metallic.

cheapest way to fix the car was to install a carbon body kit and do the work myself. i kept 1500 bucks from the painter and used it toward the kit. he said it wasn't his fault. really, really, are you ****ing kidding me. the paint job was still around 3k. it is fully jammed except the engine bay. i want that black or graphite to match the carbon fiber.

no motor outside the shop. i placed heavy steel plates under the hood to drop the front end. it looks good but the mirrors are pink and the paint looked a little tired.

the sideskirts do not fit very well, so in the summer i will finish. also thinking of raising the car up a little. the nose hits and the fenders rub so i did not get to enjoy it last summer. 20 miles on the new rims and tires. staggered 18 by 8.5 and 9.5. they stick out further then my other set. wish i could pull them in a little bit to stop the rubbing.
