mind if I ask how? sounds like it would chip badly if it was that cheap, but thats me jumping to conclusions.

Lots of prep work went in to this. Some wet sanding to take the clear coat off the lips. Few coats of paint, few coats of sealer, and a few coats of clear.

[Wagonbacker9]

I assumed as much, heres hoping it holds up! looks good!

*cough*

Anyway. That's pretty much exactly the look I was going for on my car, because nobody had done it and I wanted to be the first. At least seeing a non-photoshopped picture confirms that it looks sick as fuck :D Awesome awesome job.

[Wastegate13]

Krylon Metal X? Looks great, I like it better than the polished before. Those are Advans right?

it would be nicer if the mesh was purple and lips polished ......

[madvillian]

[808MP5]

[Fenrir]

[Wastegate13]

What the hell are you lowered on?

[miss_steele_msp]

Looks Great.....I know your tires have to be rubbin.

Right now they rub a little.. but 2 more days and my coilovers come in, I will dial in some camber and then Ill get some 235-40's next month. Thats if the wheels are not sold by then.

Are you still running the OEM Potenzas? You for sure have to be rolled in the rear. That last shot you posted is sick, but there's no way you'll be able to run 235/40 without some serious camber in the rear. I <3 aggressive fitment and yours is tits.

[my3needsaname]

Those are actually pretty cool, I'd rock 'em.

[Outlawstar98]

Sweet looking rims man.

[blkspdfreak]

looks real good, great job.

Fenrir- you deff should of jumped on it when you wanted to do it, at least you know it looks badass now, lol

[MM BOOST]

Dont sell them wheels man, they look awesome. You are nuts to sell those after doing that to them, they look 1,000 times better.

[Fenrir]

I'm still gonna do it. I just need the money first :P

[madvillian]

wait is it really that low? it looks like a photoshop haha

[paylew]

I WANT THOSE. I've been thinking about doing something very very close to that, but with pink instead of purple.

Shit! That thing is SLAMMED, how do you drive it anywhere being that low?
-When you look up slammed in the dictionary, all you see is this car and chuck norris doing a roundhouse kick.

[03.5-dc-speed]

[iredremix]

[Quiksilver05]

I love it! Very original! Looks like its lowered by PS.........Photo Shop (naughty)

[bluelion]

[Remspeed3]

Looks good, you definitley don't see that look everyday..nice work!
