        It's been unusually warm and sunny--spring came early.

          The only things that I don't like are the steering wheel and clear turn signals. The rest looks great.

            Funny, I've been debating whether to go back to the amber turn signal lenses. Maybe I'll switch one out and see how it looks. I just thought clears give a cleaner look as they blend with the rest of the lights...

                I love your car. Props for doing the euro roof mount antenna, wish I could have done that.
                Also, I remember you had this car done by that one dude in Chicago who we all thought was trying to scam Vlad, but it turned out Vlad was le scam artist.
                Are you still in contact with him? I feel like we all misjudged him, due to Vlad having 'better connections' at the time.

                    Why not go with some smoked lenses that blent with the bumper trim?

                      Yes, I had the bodywork and paint done at Sonny's shop. I'm not in contact any longer--he and Vlad deserve each other is all I'm gonna say. However, I am totally happy with the work his guy did on my car though. I ended up taking it to another body shop to have it color sanded and he even commented on how good it looked. I think the fact that I was there helping and supervising all throughout the process probably didn't hurt. :)

                        I've just never been a fan of smoked lenses myself. I prefer a "modified stock" look--like it could've come from the factory that way if you didn't know better.
