not yet, i am waiting for the springs to settle.. then i'll go get an alignment and see how much it's off. i might just not get one if it's not too bad.

you have to use 3M tape too. It also helps if you have two people so you get it aligned just right. My dude was cool, I think I just paid the $150 for prime/paint and he installed for free

Not yet. i got a friend who knows this shop down Rosemead but they were closed on Saturday. And now i am back at school... U must know a good place in the area? any recommendations?

It's called titanium metallic or whatever @#$ they call it. In person, it doesn't look quite champagnish, and it's not primrose. it's somewhere in between..haha
