Nice catch, you dont see to many people running with the stock Si wheels anymore.

Well, not around my area.

Btw those rims look amazing on your car

Thanks And it should be done VERY soon. All the sanding and repairs are done, the only thing left to do is the actual paint but the weather is still too cold to do anything

yeah thats definitely true. all the SI wheels I've come across are junk. Mine came with the car when i first got it and since they are in good shape I'm keeping them for myself

Haha they are coming I promise!! I should have it by this weekend. I was debating on posting pictures of the paint now, but I think I'm going to wait until I get it back 100% complete.

Okay so its time to do a little update. Unfortunately i have to wait another week before i can get my car back. its practically done painted and everything except the front lip isn't on. The guy doesn't have the clips in order to put it on correctly so he had to order them which will take a few days, plus there's still a few days worth of cleaning to do. Its been so long and its so close to being done but i want it to be perfect. And so does he.

Here are some pictures of it painted that I've received so far

just notice how clear the reflections are in the paint ....

This is one talented guy. If you are in the central KY area, or wherever really, and you need body work done or a quality paint job I STRONGLY recommend Roman. If anyone wants his contact info just PM me.

the whole thing costed me 4,500$ Not including the parts i had to buy before hand (only had liability when i wrecked) which costed me 2k.

i know 4,500 is a big number for a paint job but its mainly due to all the labor that was needed, good quality labor i should add. not only did i wanted it repaired and repainted i wanted it literally perfect. every single scratch, ding, rust spot, anything and everything wrong with it cosmetically was fixed haha

its official im getting it back tomorrow when i get off work. i will try and post pictures either saturday evening or sunday once i drop it a little more, get it aligned and put the wheels back on it
