Car looks good, though I personally don't like too much black on white cars.

The gold pearl looks amazing, I wonder how it looks like when the car is fully painted.

DAMN GORGEOUS. as per the comment(s) to make the rear windshield visor black, i say keep it white. helps break up the black roof/black rear windshield and gives it a really clean look. as for the spoiler (hehe) i wouldnt paint the entire thing black. maybe just black the very tip of it across. that would look pretty sick.

soooo as soon as i sell these gonna pick up some work t1s's or vs-xx ...
or if noone buys these ill jus end up buying them anyways and have these sitting around haha .. this car making me broke
i know this is old buttt--- welll how much?

also, specifically what color is your car? is it a pearl white/flat white/what??
1 more thing, bare with me, whered you get the lip under the front/rear bumper??? i like.
amazing job with the car bud. keep the pics rollin =D

yeah it was a PITA ... i was at the shop for the whole day... take off front bumper and disasemble each head light...

woulda been easier if we had an oven at the shop but we used a heat gun


ill update this thread with new pics as soon as the snow melts and i can get my car outta storage
