Finally! After almost a year, i got it painted and put on. Only bad part, the bastard missed like half of the top on both SS, and part on the back.. soooo, we're taking it back Monday and making him repaint it.. GrRR! Oh well, still looks awesome, and i even got the front strip of my windshield painted after waiting like 5 months. lol. An overall good day.. unless i wreck tonight, ha.

It looks really good man. Dont get the Velox's, they are getting so played out!!! Your rims look good with it, if you dont like those, just look around till you find the rims you absolutely love....
I know how you feel about the paint job tho. Mine was painted like ****, i mean after 3 days HUGE PAINT FLAKES are coming off. Im having it redone just in the process of getting my money back from the other shop. HUGE pain in the ***!

WOW!! Now I definitely can't wait to paint my WW G5 that I just got on Friday... I will let the shop paint them.. and then install it myself w/ friends.... hey bro, how much did you pay for them to get painted? and did they exactly match the color?
I went to this shop and they said that they will charge me $250 for just the paint but they're not warranty that it will exactly match that paint of my car... so I'm kindah doubting about this.... how much did you get them painted?

and aw yea.. I did test-fitting it.. it looks hella tight... I agree kits really totally change the whole look of your car after all.... it looks with black too (since my car is silver and black) but no.. i will paint it to match the paint of my car...
BTW, I LIKE YOU CAR! I would agree, your car looks really different now... waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay different from before...!

i'm also thinking about Z3 fenders as well. as soon as it's paid off, in a month and a half or so, i'm getting EX rear/front sway bars, HP 02' EX header, Greddy Evo 2.

Not a big fan of kits but that's the cleanest one out there (besides te type-r's and such)
I like the overall look but I think a new set of wheels is a must.
