Man, the pace of this build is dizzying!! You went from acquisition to virtually complete "restore" in about 30 days! Regardless of whether you plan to re-sell or not (I could care less!)....that's impressive speed.

Thanks,
I like those rims as we'll but I have the the stock ones coming soon!!
I may keep both!!!
The stripes I put on with soapy water.
Some bubbles take a few days to disappear .

My 2 cents....
The other rims were cool but the stock rims are how THAT car is supposed to look. Very sharp buddy, congrats!
