Getting ready for the new wheels lol, going to look so amazing.

Ball bustin' alert...

Looks great hexotic - so much so that we'll let those white New Balance shoes in the reflection slide

The color match to the calipers seems freakishly spot-on. I love the knurled edge, with the flat top.

Good job on that one, hexotic.

Yeah, the knurling is nice. The locks are also asymmetrical, added security. Muteki sr-35 if anyone is interested. Steel, not aluminum. Retail was around $100 Canadian. Should be able to find them for like $60 - $70 US online.

Dealer told me I had a nail in my rear tire and they wasn't enough tread to repair so I upgraded from the ORM Bridgestone to the Michelin Pilot Super Sport 275/35/19s....while I am not crazy about the look, they stick to the ground and hug the turns.

Gave her a much deserved bath. Chemical guys soaps smell so damn good. The wet glossy look you get afterwards is superb. Huge thanks to my friend for letting me use his driveway haha.

This was the Glossworkz soap. I need to buy the one they have for Black paint, its specifically designed to make it extra mirror like All of their soaps are amazing, and the smell is super pleasant. Here is the link for the one I used.

Chemical Guys - Glossworkz Gloss Booster and Paintwork Cleanser (16 oz)

They have a soap called Mr. Pink that comes highly recommended as well. Its even sudsier lol, meant for deeper cleaning.

The one I used is more for medium to light wash, bringing back shine and gloss to the paint. It also leaves a bit of a protective layer that fills in fine scratches and swirl marks.
