Re: My long awaited debut, car almost out the pait shop

Man,that really s--ks.You are probably limited as to where you can park at work but I always walk the extra mile in parking lots just to avoid parking near any one. I have even been known to move a shopping cart or two. Sure enough though once or twice I have come out to find a car parked right next to me in the middle of nowhere.

I STILL think the wheels are too big, but they look 100% better now the car is painted! It looks absolutely beautiful now... Congratulations!

Re: My long awaited debut, car almost out the pait shop

That sucks about your car being dinged up already. Id kill someone.
As far as the 22s go, i wouldnt put them on my car. Way to big for me. To each their own though, its your car and what you think is what matters. Plus, at least their IROC rims.
Very sexy paint job btw to. Maybe put some black in the headlight buckets when you go back? For me it just makes sense!

Yep that's next for the headlights. Gotta find some rs emblems that are cheaper than 79me bucks off ebay. Actually I really didn't think it was gonna look this good so I feel all I can do is make it better I'm gonna do the interior next hopefully tomorrow if I wake up eary enough.

Re: My long awaited debut, car almost out the pait shop

The car looks so awesome! Really like the color, sucks that someone already hit it. Glad to hear they paid for it. Your rims are nice, i think you need more black tire.
That's just my thought. Looks like the paint shop really did a great job

Re: My long awaited debut, car almost out the pait shop

I love this color. I think I'd leave the headlight buckets the way they are. The rims look good too. With these types of rims you have the thin tires so they don't look tacky. All in all it's an awesome ride!!!
