Not quite done but almost!!! 56k NONO
Picked up my car from Auto Werks in El Monte..... they did a fantastic job! Repainted the whole car w/ Veilside K1 kit installed... Veilside K1 Spoiler... and a UGO roof spoiler... oh and my Q45/BMW projector mod headlights.
I'm still missing my chrome trimming for my front and rear bumper.....
next on the list....
JDM wind deflectors
Black Braubus type mesh behind the bumper
and well.... not sure yet..... gotta save $$$
first bird poop documented!!!

yeah I used the JDM spray tint.... but now w/ the new paint I wish I had gotten the tint film instead.....
btw.... I was worreid about the K1 spoiler.... and right now I'm kinda tossed up on it.... at some angles i love it and at some angles it bothers me.... but it is growing on me. I dont know what to do.... I just dont want to do anything w/ it b/c of others opinions but only of my own....
yet I am asking for yalls opinions b/c I'm truly tossed up w/ it.... I'm thinking of going w/ the OEM spoiler.... i think it'll match the UGO's angle real well....

your car is looking good man. i know what you mean about the VS wing...i waivered back and forth on that one too but ultimately decided on the explosion 3 piece. yeah, i know it isn't the most subtle either but it fit the RMM kit and JP roof spoiler well IMO. but hey, enjoy the car for a bit and let the new paint job sink in before you make your final decision. overall, you're looking nice and aggressive...sinister is probably a better word. props on the retro fit too. i hope some type of clear bra is on your agenda to protect that fresh paint man.

nono, i mean buffing your current painted taillight. use porter cable and some fine polishing compound (get the final step or the ultra fine ones) and just buff the hell out of it
