Wow, big change. Looks good, I would personally paint the grill though, especially with your headlights painted it stands out like a sore thumb. And spacers to bring your wheels flush and your car would look great!

When I was painting my wheels I was going to do the grill too but I lazy. Sucks to work outside in the heat. As for the spacers, I need to save up.

Nice, thats the look I'm eventually going to go for.

What kind of paint job is it? one that will last like a factory repaint?
