so i bought another set, sold the G35's and went back down to 18's, repowdercoated them and will mount and balance the tires this following week

we talked for a good while about them and i almost pulled the trigger many times, i just cant see plunking down $2500 (once i get tires) on a car i have 0 intention of keeping. i like them and im doing the center caps now. mounted 2 of them last night

correct, can do a true tire rotation as they are all the same size...
its been a hell of a past week/weekend for me........ first my car got keyed in 3 places (my night job is right by a movie theater and we get a bunch of ****ty little kids coming into my work all the time) no matter i have full coverage and a vanishing deductible so i will pay that and get the hood, trunk, and passenger door repainted. i may have some areas the last body shop butchered also fixed
this is the worst of the damage

THEN that night after leaving the police department from filing the vandalism report (insurance required it) i was hungry and went to get my other car and go meet some buddies for dinner. Some 22 year old wasnt paying attention and slammed into the back of me at about 40+. (why couldnt i have been in the lexus
) anyways AS of right now they are estimating it at $42XX.XX and 16 days of repair, once they remove the bumper they will reevaluate it and see what the damage is. the pics dont show the damage well but the whole hatch will have to be replaced, the bumper, the inside lock assembly is completely gone, the floor pan is pushed in, yada yada

yup but full coverage so pay my deductible and thats that....
also getting front bumper repaired/repainted, a few paint chips fixed, and a few other small things at the body shop
car is at the audio shop atm getting some warranty work done and some re-do on some of the suede (along with fixing the passenger taillight cover piece i have always hated)

back from the bodyshop.... i stalled as my pruis was in the body shop for 31 days (Estimate came out to almost $5400 by the end of it plus a rental for a month for me). Lexus had the keyed hood, door, trunk repainted and at the same time i got the front bumper repainted, TTE lip reattached/repainted, new emblem put on. its going back to the audio shop for some repairs to the suede panels (they damaged last time when they fixed something), then back to the body shop for some more wet sanding/buffing, some other touch ups and then buffing out the headlights
she will be up for sale in about 2 weeks. i could use some new spacers since im back on the G-spyders and off the G35's but im not messing with it anymore
