Newish wheels and wash(pix)

I had a chance to wash the whippy whip after a month or so and threw on the wheels I just got.There 17x8.5 Konig Reasons.I like how they are silver and machined but they will get painted black soon to match the rest of my car.On to the pix.

Its the factory hood painted,Gloss black base coat by sikkens,and 3 coats of House of Kolors clear.It still needs to be buffed with a foam pad but im gonna end up painting the black House of Kolors tangelo pearl.And thanks.I hhave too much time into it but it keeps me sane

I would do gloss black if your gonna paint it.Although flat might match the CF more.either way will look sexy as hell.

@50 sounds good.My ss bumper unpainted new from gmpartsdirect was 215 plus shipping.Total for my bumper and pass. fender was $500 shipped then I had to pay $600 for base coat clear coat bake buff and labor.So if you can find a used one painted then go for it.

is it the guy selling the silver one.I texted him about the side skirts and hesold em .I need skirts and a G5GT rear conversion to finish appearence.You can always get the bumper and get it sprayed at mayco but remember you get what you pay for so i would suggest having a reputable shop do the spray work.My homie's a painter by trade so I always take it to him cause he's the best painter I know

idk what it is, (and i mean no offense at all) but those wheels and tires look like 16's? like the gap in between the tires and the wheel well seems to be a pretty large space for 17's... idk something looks off to me haha. maybe its just the picture.

That's because they're 40 series wheels.
