People need to get it right.

If by mean putting a Soarer Badge on the car then take all that Lexus badge out.

edit. Lower the car more. About 2 inch.

worked on fixing some of the chips/scratches that were on my rims, so i got some high temp chrome paint,

step 1 made sure to cover the spokes and the rest of the rim as to not get it anywhere else...






step 2 then started spraypainting, about 2 coats first




step 3 then bust out polish to get more shine out of the rims
