Did you paint your car yourself? If so how?

I want mine to look like that.

Nah, the car came with the paint. Looks like a rattle can paint job too... the lines you can see cross the hood.

Haha, yea the windsheild. I won't drive a car if I see the slightest glare or imperfection on all windows/mirrors. Detracts from my ability to drive as I would.

Yea, the set I have are staggered. The guy I got them off of doesn't know the offset, but the other pair look about 5-10mm more negative than the front... which would work out just about perfectly

Yea, it's an SE. God damn I love having this bolt pattern, regardless that most of the awesome wheels have too radical of an offset to fit within these stock fenders.

Yes, paint if terrible I agree. Especially living in SoCal, it becomes a cop-magnet. Can't wait to paint the car silver and clean.

Those look awesome.

I agree with you too, as cool as flat black looks, I think it should be left to something from the 50's.

I still kind of snicker when I see that bumper, I instantly get reminded of a key hole.

If that Airdam is fiberglass, I'm interested if you sell it - very "80's" and just what I'm after. Let me know via PM.

Yep, the airdam is that cool old school "cassette tape-door" looking one. Very unique. I like it.
