^That looks really nice as well. What color are you painting it?

AH DRIPS ON THE DOOR. Hopefully you can sand that out =)

I'm assuming your going HOK Kandy Red with that base coat?

^The drips are because he was testing the flow in the gun and that is where he started. As noted a few times above, that is not a base coat, it is the first stage primer, which has already been sanded smooth. Also as I stated, the car will be painted steel blue mica.

Ah ok..thought it was a gold /yellow base ...didn't read through.
bodywork looks top notch

They fit and they clear the oem suspension. That is all the test fitting I have done so far. It looks like they will definitely fill out the wheel wells though. I may need a bit of camber as well. Overall it should look pretty mean. Thanks for the good advice btw.

I will post pics of future test fits as well. Probably not until the car is painted however.

Received the APR carbon fiber mirrors w/black bases recently. Picture of box on first page. More updates to come.
