Car is looking good Sanyata. Those GT3 wheels in Satin black look great. I may have to think about that.

SSST, that is my dilemma at the moment. Found a set of GT3 wheels and got the minimal curb rash on one fixed today. Now I don't know if I should paint them black or leave them silver.

SSST & mikewils, the wheels are painted Porsche Meteor Gray Metallic which is sorta like glossy gunmetal gray with metallic but the pictures never show it very well at all. I think it adds more depth character than just a solid black.

Are the headlight covers really that bad?

Better?

This was actually a lot more difficult than I thought it would be.
These damn things were fiberglass. They were stuck on with double sided tape and some sort of silicone. To top it all off the entire outer edge of the headlight was painted!
Once I got all the crap off, I used a 3M kit and polished the entire headlight.
Took about 3 hours total.
