        my Rs wheels are 17x8.5 front with 215/40/17
        and the rears are 17x9.5 with a 245/35/17

        The car will be buffed out when its done, but the complete car, dont really know. When my truck was sprayed, there was no reason to buff the whole thing out- it came out that nice!
        there is still alot of work to do. this is just the body of the car, it is getting done as fast as it can, so it can get out of the shop....- space = money.
        still need to finish all the other pieces too, but I can start reassembling everything while he is painting the other stuff.

                    sweet color - The Dodge Caliber Orange has that same metallic sparkle, but is a bit darker.

                    I like this color better.

                    Awesome Mike!!!!!

                        henna dosent look much different from that color in direct sunlight, minus the metal flake.

                        i dont know, i liked the dark blue the car used to be, but im anxious to see the results.

                          not in direct sunlight, it looks just like that focus does on the c pillar

                            maybe it looks like the focus does on the C pillar (dark) when you look at henna in full sunlight (bright)
