Sorry, I'm still looking for my jaw....

Seriously though, I've NEVER seen paint go on that level, might have to bring my car up there to be sprayed by the same people...

Man my digi-cam takes some crappy pictures unless I'm in sunlight!:3d_frown: Still haven't decided what color on the lettering on rear moldings.

LOL.....thats nuts, I think I've seen carbon fibre one around that price. Cost me under $10 to paint and looks better than a new one:) I also passed on the rear hatch window trim...over $350 IIRC... all the windshield, 1/4's, and targa trim is new.

Dave...I'm anxiously awaiting your thread getting into high gear.

I Like it.........But.............I'm afraid a full car of it may get called ricey. But as said above, it really compliments the wheels good.

OH...........And I LOVE the smoked corners and the black moldings with the fresh 3E5!

Heres the difference before and after color sanding right up close, you cant see any peel unless you are looking for it. Notice the roof tops and details in the tree.

Personally, I like it. I probably would have opted for color matched to the car. Barring that, like others said they compliment the wheels nicely and completes the package well.
