^I spent most of the day helping dad load a bunch of scrap metal.
Only got one headlight bezel mostly done.

I'll go post pics in that thread (as well as the one in the sedan media share)

Nice. What color did you pick as your final?

^Matte black. For me there was never any other option.

My wheels, grill, and ducts are all matte black. Headlights must match grill.

The only things that are gloss black are my roof and mirrors.
I'll end up doing the chrome door trim in gloss black too, so it matches the roof, mirrors, and window tint itself... but I'm not going to DIY that one. I don't trust myself to make a good enough finish
I may be the king of matte black out of a can, but gloss scares me

lol agreed with the gloss notion. I think when I go to get my front bumper repainted ill have him paint where my mirrors attach to the car. They upset me everytime I see them

^Yes. Mine annoyed me as well.
I debated several different options including having the bases done in gloss black with IP mirrors, IP on both, or black on both (what I finally settled on)

Speaking of spacers, there's some guys selling no-name 25mm spacers in the private classifieds.

Any thoughts? $160 for a set of four (4) brand new. He's selling lots of them, apparently. I'd just hate to take a gamble one something that critical.
