Nice, What was wrong with the paint before? I guess you got tired of the highrise wing.

I forgot about the handles. I remember you doing those a while back.

I really like the doorhandles, but I think the high rise spoiler looked better than the 4th gen t/a wing.

Nothing wrong with it, just haven't finished the pass side yet although I'm slowly working on it.

I kind of liked the highrise too and will say, it has it's better looks at certain angles but, I never liked the fact that it didn't wrap the glass like the aerowing. I picked up a good wraparound and laid it on the hatch to see about going back to original but I flat out didn't like it at all. Probably from being so used to seeing the tall Z wing on there so, the 4thgen was sort of a compromise. It's not quite Z height but, it's close and it wraps the glass as I like. I can't say I'm 100% in love with the 4thgen wing but, I do like it much better than the orig areowing and mostly better than the Z wing. I also like the fact that I'll have a 3rd brake light again.
