Nice work! I really like your rear spoiler!  :2thumbs:

Agreed...I don't typically like a spoiler but that looks good.

Rear bumper looks awesome!!

Was at the paint shop yesterday to check out the progress on the car,he have already used over 100 hours on it,and there is some work left before he spray it with primer.
Also making the grille to one piece and removing the fastners to the trim pieces.

The first picture is from the day after delivery,the rest from yesterday.

note to self: A quality paint job requires a ton of redbull energy drinks.  :bigsmile:
