    I almost expected these to peel worse than they did when the tires were mounted. Next challenge is to see how white they stay with brake dust.... and how well they can be scrubbed clean

        It's a little too low for my taste/driving style, but it definitely cleans up everything about the car. It looks awesome with the IX kit too.

              Steal a friends driveway for the day haha. But really I'd try it out if you can. It was surprisingly a very quick process but I also had the wheels off the car. Maybe do one side at s time.

              It is definitely very very low but luckily az has pretty awesome roads for the most part. I'm a little concerned about driving this low out to cali in sept, so may raise it up for the drive out there.

I can wash and scrub lightly with no peeling at all. The hood unfortunately has been shit for about a year and was actually part of the reason I vinyl'd the car for Bfest...and it looked cool as hell haha. I'm tempted to just chalkboard it for the socal show in sept. I know it's not original or new, but it'd be some good fun for a weekend. Then it's time to get it painted for real.
