I dig it, definitely makes the car stand out (ironic, eh?). Keep us posted on how the matte finish does, I'm always weary of it because it tends to show flaws/impacts/etc. very harshly.

you definitely have to dechrome your car! Make the chrome trims maybe gloss black. Looks damn sick btw!

Yes. I am weary of the flaws also but I will pay extra at car wash and do hand wash only. I only plan on keeping this till summer and taking it off. The paint chips on the front bumper and SO BAD I had to dip the car. I plan on doing a full wrap once fall comes around in Satin Nardo Grey or storm cloud grey

Will the wrap be difficult to remove in the future?
I guess if anything, the paint will look immaculate at removal even after some years

Looks good. Looks like lowered? I think stock wheels with a moderate drop looks great. What's special about the ****? I thought mine looks the same.

Yes, I like the stock wheels with drop but my 20s have a bit concave in them so looks great!
Shift **** is red stitching to match my leather vs the stock white stitching
