Default Finally posting pics of my new baby

I bought it 2 weeks ago... but been busy driving it :-) so here are a couple of pics (taken from my iphone so apologies for the quality)
It's pretty dirty as well given that I drove it 700miles over the week end and did not wash it

After looking at those pics, I was actually thinking of having the bottom of the skirts/bumbers painted. The grey looks pretty horrible. Any idea where I could get that done (not Porsche I assume) and how much that would set me back?

First things first...drive it. Then worry about the details....I think the grey is fine.

Very nice....paint the grey, I think that would look sweet...just make sure they get painted off the car so they dont end up peeling later on. Make sure to post some pics when the are painted....and you are lucky to have enough time to drive 700 miles in a weekend...

I think the grey looks fine... I don't know about Boston but here in SOCAL getting in and out oif a gas station does a number on the front "lip" and it would need to be repainted every month.

nice car! Don't paint the plastic if you intend to ever track it...it will get scuffed up pretty good.

Beautiful car! welcome!
Pumpkins are the orange lights in the front bumper, Factory clear ones run about 25 bucks from sunset.

Nice! Keep the grey, you won't even notice it in a few days. Love the Riviera boat.
