Everything is really coming together nicely. Not in a bad way, but considering how simple and inexpensive most your mods are, the car looks REALLY great. Again, not in a bad way!!!

Joe, the car looks fantastic, I was iffy about the red/black theme at first, but you are nailing it

May i recommend to you sir, some spacers? I think you dont need to upgrade your wheels, they look pretty damn good and with some 15/20 F/R spacers, your stance will look the sex too on those teins

Also, how was your rear bumper plastidip experience

Thanks everyone! I really like how everything came out. My goal was show how good these stock wheels can look with the right "attitude" I think I have accomplished that!

Tobwac-Not sure about blacking out the roof yet, I like the look of the white. Not that I am opposed, I just have mixed opinions. I dont necessarily wanna add a black roof to soak in anymore FL heat than I have to either.

Killer- Plasti bumper has not had any problems, looks the same since the first day I painted it. Would have looked slightly better/tighter edges had I flash sprayed but its w/e, its hardly noticeable. Waiting on moarrlow to figure out spacers haha. Not really sure if I can run spacers either since I probably won't do anything about my camber in the back.

ttk- thanks man, I hope some newer guys can look to me and see a nice looking car doesnt have to be gaudy, sticker infested, or running ridiculous offsets with expensive jdm parts to look clean.

stak & apin- she couldn't do heels cause of the road... however, surprisingly she not only had fun with it but already has ideas for our next shoot. Most likely night time (AND DEFINITELY HEELS) haha I'm a lucky bastard!

Yeah I love it, shit sucks to wrap... I always forget how much I hate wrapping things in vinyl! I did mess up a little bit but it's very hard to see. It was suggested by pyro to do the cup holder also. May look into it after finals are done... ALSO may wrap steering wheel trim. Definitely goes VERY WELL with PWP! I wouldn't suggest doing this unless you have PWP or CBP!

Well, spray painting 3M vinyl works, you can see on previous page. Sooo if you wanna paint your vinyl go ahead I'm sure it would look good! Better pictures are coming in the next couple days, and I just learned how to do HDR so I will be experimenting with that too!

Yeah I would have wrapped it already but I was afraid to pry off the trim cause I wasn't sure what was holding it in place lol. But I will let you know how to do it when I find out!

I know exactly how to do it, I just dont want to. Google the steering wheel accessory trim installation guide, it shows you how to remove it

Now I know why you didnt wanna do it, I didnt know it was this involved to get the trim off.

I would try putting on the vinyl without taking the trim off first. There is a little bit of play to where you should be able to push the vinyl around the edges under it with something thin.

yeah thats another option too, but it'll be really tricky especially trying to trim up the pieces that are touching the leather part of the steering wheel. Last final is on monday morning. I might try and do some more wrapping after that.

Supplies are bought for CUSTOM ROOF SPOILER!
Supplies are bought for CUSTOM DIFFUSER!

While buying supplies I actually ran into some kids who were looking at plastidip in home depot. I asked "plastidip heh?" What are you dipping? Kid had an infiniti and wanted to matte black his roof lol. Gave him some tips and showed them my wheels. They were astounded that my wheels were plastied. Still looks as good as day one!

Yeah I will, I can tell you whats gunna happen in the next few days.

Got some cardboard boxes from some friends at publix. Im gunna cut out the shape I want and make sure it fits the contour of the roof/back window. Once I have the correct shape I will glue my foam pieces together (I couldn't find any that were long enough/ thick enough)
Then Ill tape my cardboard design to my foam and cut it out and sand it down. Hopefully I can replicate the contour that exists on the OEM lip spoiler. From there, I'm gunna try and not mess up using fiber glass lol. It's my first time. If I am happy with it, then I may make my diffuser out of fiber glass too. But we will see. Step be step pictures will be taken as well. It will be a pretty thorough DIY, unless I mess up/run out of time/run out of patience/run out of money from messing up.
