Nicely shaved. You need a drop and paint the calipers either black or green, red will look out of place.

about time you shaved your emblems thats usually the first thing ppl do. j/k i sometimes wish i didnt shave mine but o well. its looks really good waxed though. but im actually surprised that for all the other mods you've done, you have slammed it yet. i really like your platano though, you dont see it much.

well right now I'm working on the custom trunk, dynamating all of that than working on the amp rack. But I've had my emblems shaved (two outside ones) since august, I just had shadowing and I didn't get a buffer until christmas so I buffed the shit out of my car.
I was going to paint the calipers red because that is my secondary color. but the thing is that VHT doesn't mkae high temp green paint. When I get my tax return back ($2700) I'll lower my shit, complete the trunk with fiberglass, maybe get a front and rear lip done. I'm not sure yet.

I used a heatgun and some goo gone. Just make sure you wash as soon as you get the glue off, don't let the goo gone sit on your clear coat. After you wash, buff and wax, and you see no more ghosts.
