Duplicolor is shiite. It will chip and has no UV protection. You can have a pro paint shop mix any color in a can for about $25.

This is intriguing, thought about doing the tte-tte rep for a while, kinda like painting, this could make it too cheap not to try it. Worst case scenario I'm not happy and pay my paint guy to make it perfect.

Hey guys.. i didnt to start a new thread so i decided to post in this one. Just a little update after my front lip install. i bought some 20" wheels brand new for a good deal and decided to slap them on and ride like a monster truck untill my coilovers come in. loL!!! I just ordered the coilovers today so it will take about a week till my car is lowered. Rims are Niche Touring wheels. 20x8.5 et45 front and 20x10 et35 rear. i love them and cant wait for my car to be lowered. i went with Megan EZ since its the best bang for your bucks if your on a budget. heres some pics buddies!!!! not the greatest pictures but will take better one once its low!!
