A shame indeed. We should be squashing this creativity and expressionism. Back to the status quo! Only stock vehicles for the good of us all and healthy porridge for dinner.
or...
To each their own.
I will take this.

Still need to shine her up some more.

I can see what people say about that gap above the grille. It doesn't bother me... that much. Wondering if I should have the hood repainted to match the new bumper...

I recently did a light polish and wax on my CX-9 - it's nearing 3 years old, but looks brand new thanks to some of the tips and tricks I learned on that forum.

One last note - I love the epoxied floor of your garage
Thanks for the recommendation- I was thinking of dark red but can't find caliper paint in that color. All I keep finding is that bright fire engine red. Haven't really thought about new wheels, maybe I will do that. Thanks for the tip about autogeek, heading over there now to find tips on paint correction.

And about the epoxied floor -thank you! The floor is looking shinier than the car right now.
