The last picture, im in love with... actually all of em.
Now it looks perfect
I can't even say get the A-Spec kit...
stands nice and clean
Have you thought about matching color of the front grill + rear eblem and the stripe below it to the rims color or gunmetal?
Plastidip gunmetal might work, im doing it on my TL, you'll see how it will look, if you consider.
Painting the rear mufflers?
and why are you leaving the prime autos frame?
friends place or something?

Hahaha it's my family's car business. 
The front grille will be carbon fiber di-noc and plasti/paint as well as the rear strip.
Mufflers are staying, I like them a lot.
Thanks Tyler!

Thanks for the kind words everyone!
Yes I sealed with Zaino Z2, but I think I over-applied it
it would seem really dry like nothing was there and I would reapply it and it was a pain in the ass to rub in. I'm gonna try and fix it and redo another layer and then wax it since I didn't get to that.
J, I have a long ways to go before I put yours to shame.

Not true, my friend...yours is simple,classy and cleaner. But thanks for that.
yeah, the Zaino is tricky stuff in the sense that it doesn't go on like a traditional wax where you can SEE it hazing over...you can tell it's there but it's hard to see.

Nice reflectiveness in that finish Austin.
I used Zaino when I first bought my Type S. I love the stuff. But many people say it's great for shine, but not for correction. I've turned to Griot's Garage products now and love them too.
Updated your thread's title for you.

I can never go lower than John, his coils allow him to, mine don't.
