    ...and then there was 2k....COMPLETE(sorta)

    well not really complete but uh, close!!!! i finally got my rims painted and i got the sideskirts...INSTALLED!!! all i have to say before posting the pics, i can't thank every1 on this board enough for helping me through thick and thin with my car, you guys are amazing and i hope to contribute to other users in the way u contributed to me guys, thanks. why so mushy u ask? well a year ago (when i bought this car) i could only imagine half of the crap i've managed to do to this car to actually come to life, and for now here she is......THANKS AGAIN MARK/MODS/ALL!!!

    prepwork: sanded and primered rims





    AND.....the finished product....from silver to gunmetal in on time!



    rims on car......but wait......



    HOLY SIDESKIRTS BATMAN!!!!







    they are black cuz i like them that way lol and i thnk it matches my car, oh yeah sorry about crappy quality, these are from my phone, and as for visuals i think a rear valance and a window tint will complete my exterior!!!! i'm so cloooooooose! comments are much appreciated! lataz...

    P.S.- for those nitpickers, i have a 1st gen teg lip and the sideskirts don't come down much further to be honest, ppl think they came oem, which is the reason why i bought them anyway

    hahaha Mr custom. I wish. Its not much that I am good at custom work, as it is more Im not affraid to mess something up. and I messed up a lot of stuff. (like all the holes i drilled in the bottom of the PS2!) post those new pics as soon as you get them. your car looks super clean. black and gun metal. BTW those rims wouldnt be the GT sports ??

    yeah hahah, well i wasn't really planning on getting a paint job, i mean if anything i'd just have them touch up everything the way it already is, cuz i like the having a black hood/black sidekirt combo, and yes and no to them being GT sports, 1 of them is and the others are ALT-191, after doing some research i found out that ALT rims are like pretty much outta business or at least i particular models, so i dug around some and found an exact matching rim called the GT sports man it was worth the wait!
