Looks good but why not just paint them amber? You can use orange metalcast, must easier and wouldnt have to worry about it peeling or bubbling or anything. Next Id paint the inside headlights black, and z wheels in black would look good on that color.

I like it. The front really needs a lip of some kind, though.

kinda hard to see how good a job you did from so far away. just makes them stand out to much for me personally. but if your happy with them.

you did a really nice job. the amber corners look really good with that paint color. please drill out the rivets and remove that front license plate bracket, it's ruining the cleanliness of the car

I like the orange. Next time you wrap something with vinyl have a heat gun on hand. It will soften it slightly and allow it to stretch, that will keep you from getting the wrinkles on the edges. Lastly after you finish laying it down hit it with a heat gun again, it will shrink slightly and grab on to whatever you wrapped.



Paying someone to install parts and bragging about it being fast, is like watching someone bang your wife and being proud to raise their kids.
