Took you long enough.. :shake:

So far so good..

It wears the color well, but we need direct sunlight to get a sense of gloss / orange peel / etc.

The white rims aren't really my thing but for what they are, they look nice.

The black spoiler seems like a good choice, it fits better than you might think.

I'm assuming the corner and taillights are stock 'cause you like it that way and I respect that(holdin' those comments back)
Despite the fact that I don't like the orange in those areas, it actually seems to look better with the corners all amber than the fade design on others (like mine).

Only thing I'd definitely recommend changing is the fog light bumper inserts, they'd look much better in black or white IMO

Seems to be lacking some gloss, but other than that, it looks amazing compaired to the black primer!

Glad to see it comming along man! Hope you make it up for the meet this year.
