Car looks great but good lord you over paid by alot! Sorry but no way a 1 stage coat should be that much per wheel. Hopefully its just your area, but did you shop around at all?

Here I can get a stage 1 for $75 per wheel.

I'm not familiar with the different stages. Can you enlighten me? I did shop around and the costs were pretty consistent.

Beautiful! Black window trim would really complete the look! (I know it's on your future list)

Basically how many different steps need to be taken to achieve the color your wanting. Some wheels require to be polished, chrome plated, chrome powder, multi colors, fades, etc etc etc. Again its all dependent of the color your looking for.

Thanks DFS. I went back to my paypal statement and it looks like I paid around $600 instead of 800, so I guess my memory served me worse over the years. I guess 600 is better than my original estimate, but still a bit more than what you were saying could be paid down in the Tampa area.

Still happy with the results though!

Thanks man. I kinda regret removing the original vinyl I had on there over the years, but after about 3 years the edges started to peel and it started to look really bad. So this time I'll do it right, have some parts replaced and rewrapped in gloss black. Should look

I love that dog. I can honestly say that when my old feline friend (14 1/2 year old shepard/chow mix) passes, my wife and I are seriously thinking of finding a Daschund. Yours looks like a pretty good companion!

Digging that CF Trunk Spoiler, Eurtsx! You possibly have a link to where you bought it or could you point me in the right direction? Been trying to find something to my liking!

This is the listing. Several of us on the forum have gotten this spoiler. I'd say the fitment is pretty good with exception to the camera hole and button, but it's not like it blocks any of the camera so you're good.

He's all sold out right now, but should be restocked. You could probably shoot him a message too.

Thanks for the info! Any idea if he has ones without the camera hole? My G doesn't have a backup camera.
