Snapped a few pics....

Hey, had my camera with me today, figured I'd stop and take a few new pics since I removed the ugly under door decals, and also polished the lips on my G6 GTP wheels too. Sorry cars a little dirty, haven't had time to clean it + rains on the way

Next up: Moving out of Illinois finally so front plate will be coming off, front windows tinted 20%, Eibach's for Christmas, and wingless next weekend.

The wheels didn't come with tires, so I just threw what I had on the previous wheels onto these. Same width as our stockers.

Lol they came out a little lighter than the car for some reason, used the duplicolor Victory Red.

Yep, I'm going to try a thin black outline around them to see if it helps.

the outline might make them stick out more- see if you can get a closer red vinyl?

Hey did you say you had a very close red vinyl to our car? If so I might need some eyelids this red's not matching up lol.

They are pretty similar, maybe a pound or so lighter, never weighed them.
