Why did it need new paint since it was an 05?

not new paint... paint restoration. It had alot of swirls all over, and just didn't look fresh. They did a strip down wash, clay bar, and used a buffer with aggressive pads. Then a high gloss treatment.

Very nice.. hard to beat Emotions.
Though I do agree, the standard 17s are a lovely wheel, Least you have a choice now!

I agree - stock wheels look better. It could also use a little something on the chin. Pictures are pretty good.
