Looking good. Is that the tires that you hydroplaned with? What type of tires were you running during your boo boo?

I was on the stock garbage super car run flats that everyone say to get out of. Yes I wanted to go wide body but ill save that for when I buy my self a grand sport or a Z. I'm goin for the nice stock clean aftermarket look. It's getting a custom white with white pearl. I already painted the top black pearl diamond and it looks sooo nice

I like the painted pieces so far. Looking good.
By the way, there seems to be a large belly button in one of your painted panels. You may want to buff that out before you install it.

Hahahahahahah to funny cyberbullet.. Thank you for the positive and funny feedback. That belly and belly button should buff right out with some jogging and less food. Drinking pop is my worst enemy as I'm gettin older. :/

Ok she's all together and was on the road today then guess what IT RAINS !!!! Well in Arizona it rains 7 days out of the year and it rains the day Shes all together and me hittin the road
Three hours prior to me going to work and the rain
Tonight after I got home and wiped it down
Almost forgot my splash guards came in too had them installed in 30 seconds. Just in time huh ?!? lol
Of course more pics to come after she's buffed out. Oh and a question because my tops not jet black would I still qualify in the black halo club ??
