You my friend need some wheel spacers, and your car looks fantastic 
How much did the paint job run you and in your opinion how did it turn out (pictures are impossible to tell).

believe it it or not it has wheel spacers and just barely cleared the calipers but that's as much as I can go without getting longer studs for the lugs and until it's wet sanded and buffed it's hard to say but maybe 9 out of 10 and possibly 9.5 out of 10 once wet sanded and buffed I had a friend thAt has a body shop do me a big time favor cost me $1000 but he told me if anyone asked he charged me $3000 lol but ur not local and don't know him so I tell u the truth I went factory qx1 with a different variance more white than yellow but lots of pearl ...how could u tell I didn't have any room with my rims u spottted that from the pic?

It really does look super crisp. You made fast work of that. Question for the masses: it looks like it's sitting a little lower in the rear than the front...sort of squatting. Anyone else see it or am I imagining?

I think you might want to put in some ventilation holes and possibly a side draft fan to draw air from the rest of the "under-carpet" trunk space which will push the air up through the vent holes, or omit the fans and let convection do it's thing. Looks good though, I wish I could subtract my spare tire and do something like that but I do a LOT of highway driving and might need the spare so...
