Car makeover

So heres my car before






and here is how it sits now




close up shot of my painted rims / calipers. rims are dusty tho >.<



I still have to put my hfp lip overlay on, but after that its pretty much done.
oh and i got the red H decals on the rims, you can barely see them in the photoshoot pics

Ideal Detailing

installed and did everything myself.

painted the rims just by sticking notecards between the tire and the rim and used duplicolor "graphite" rim paint. 3 coats of paint, 3 coats of clear.

calipers = g2 black
hfp kit
and all stickers from grfxp.com
