yep it's just the initial reaction that hurts... afterwards you start getting ideas in your head and the wheels start turning

this thread is a perfect example

UPDATE:

The car is all back together. I carefully lined up all the body panels making sure all gaps are good and everything is as it should be from the factory (not very easy).

This colour has a lot of dynamics. In the shade, it almost looks like a flat satin like finish, and in the sun it POPS. There is so much flake in it I love it. Let me know what you guys think. I tried to capture as much of the dynamics of this color in the photos. Yes it's wet, but I only had 1.5 hours to wash and shoot the car so I was pressed for time

COMING SOON (Just need to install them):

Downforce CF Side Diffusers
HTG Black Chrome Emblems (Front, Sides and Rear)
Front and Rear spacers for OEM wheels

































Also:

The paint is untouched (just a quick wax for some protection). It has not been wet sanded or buffed. I hope to get around to doing that soon and make this thing REALLY shine smile.gif.

Do you guys think I need to paint the inner area of the Ings+1 black?

Love the outcome of the color.
Really nice and different.

Get some NSX/CR lug nuts in black! They fit the OEM wheels really nicely.

what are:"HTG Black Chrome Emblems "?

I don't feel that rear bumper at all.
Why didn't you stick to that clean OEM look?

Which spacer dimensions will you add? Thinking about doing 15s all around for my ap2v2s...
