Default rota c8 black with red lip install update pg 2 56k no way

so i got my rota boosttoday, its black finish with the red lips, and got to think of how to do a make over on my rota c8's (originally sport bronze) its getting nasty and theres a couple of scuff marks on it, i have been wanting to refinish it, but anyway when i got my rota boost today it gave me an idea here's some pics.

btw: sorry for the large pics, i forgot to resize them, tell me what you think


here is my new rota boost that i just got in via ups

I'm going to pick up my brother-in-law's EG coupe for $200 bucks. Needs new axles and clutch. Then im going to sell the hatch for money. Anyways, the wheels i want are Drag DR21 (enkei rpf01 replicas).
