Didn't know you had your calipers painting. What color are you painting the calipers? I'm eager to see how your grill will look with white. Don't forget to click, click on the pictures mi amigo!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wait, how did you get the trophy before the grill was painted? Second and last pic, no paint.
Looks great man! Congrats on the win!
It's always good to see an RL getting recognition. That always seems so few and far between these days. Congrats again!

the painting of the grill happened weeks before Wekfest Chicago. So i won the trophy at an event months before i decided to paint it.
People like the transformation of the car and allowed me to win the event. Which i was shocked but its good trophy to have...

Congratulations on your win
I'm sure your wife is happy too. That really sucks you can't get your money back. Let's hope you won't get hit with a re stocking fee. So what kit you plan on ordering if the dealer give your money back?
