Great job, I honestly couldn't tell if it was an old or new Bullitt for a minute there.

Love your car. Those chrome bumpers actually look good on it. Didn't you paint your wheels a darker grey also? Been thinking of painting mine but can't find the thread with the pics of yours in it.

Mind posting a wheel pic for me? Any others would be cool too!

...with FRPP 17" wheels and 255/50x17 Kumho's. The centers are painted with Cast Blast paint to simulate rough aluminum casting a la Torque Thrusts.

Thanks for posting those Dennis, you did a great job on your car.

Definately want to go darker on the spokes now. Mine are the stock Anthricite but not dark enough for me and black is too dark.

How's the paint holding up? Any special tips for painting?

Found a local place that does powdercoating but haven't had time to check them out yet. Might go that route if not too spendy.
