thanks for the nice comment makes it worth while lol

maybe a new set of plates? only say that as the pic of the front with the smoked headlights (which look very good) there is a bit of rust working its way down the plate lol maybe a set of pressed plates if your in to them? if not jsut a set of clean new plates

what are you doing with the front bumper? just a straight re-spray or are you doing any smoothing?
