It's ok. It's slowly being degraded by dents and hit-N-runs. Alot of dumb people in my area.
So we should go beat um up?

Yes, but first I wish to tie them up and peel a little piece of skin with a rusty razor blade and shower with alcohol on the extraction area. We do this everyday until all skin has been peeled. Then we can beat their guts out.
Alright, if we are doing that then I am wearing gloves...

So I was really never a fan of the center gold / polished lip theme and went to this.
I liked the gold better, but these look nice too. Keep it up!So I was really never a fan of the center gold / polished lip theme and went to this.

Thank you.
On these rims I rushed it because I didn't have enough time until the next 3 weeks. I was originally stripping them but it was so time consuming. I bought cheap white base coat on home depot and a primer.
Usually this is what I would get and do.
- Duplicolor rim paint spray
- Duplicolor primer spray
- 800grit & 1000grit sandpaper
- Simple green degreaser
- Duplicolor clear spray
Wash-> Degrease-> 800g sand-> 1000g sand-> wash N dry-> primer-> 3 coats of main -> 1 coat of clear.

Thanks... Never been a fan of polished lip unless it's a deep dish.
Update. My oem grille got broken and it's unfixable. So I had this rep mugen grille lying around.
I know alot of people hate this because it looks weird , but I , myself , like it alot because it looks different.
Still trying to find a mugen badge that will perfectly fit the emblem area. Most of the ones I got are either small and/or short.

I have the same grille, for the same reason, and like it because its not popular. Haha

.. also I'm tired of being a carbon copy of one guy having the same parts. I only rocked the grille over a week and I'm seeing people in my area copying it already. :facepalm: Damn rookies.
Anyway , a labor day photo session.
