New wheels are on, as well as a 5mm larger spacer up front, and had the front raised up a bit. I think I'm going to have the lip, side skirts, and end caps repainted to Night Armor next (same color as door handles & hood latches). Also planning on going with a different the BBK once my SP1's sell and then paint those calipers as well.

Funny story... I was planning on coating them the Saturday before Labor Day, then having them installed the Tuesday after, well, on Saturday I pretty much spilled 90% of the bottle about 1/2 way into the first wheel. I ordered another bottle that day with 2 day shipping (arriving on Thursday) and rescheduled the install to Friday. As of this morning, I still haven't received the 2nd bottle, but the tracking does say it is expected to arrive sometime today. USPS FTL. Soooo the inner barrel of one of the back wheels is coated
Thanks dude! I know I have a friend's wedding and a trip to California in May, I just don't know the dates yet, so I'm really hoping that I can still make it up. 1st world problems

Got my mirrors in
The plan is for the bases to be painted Magnetic Black and the mirror housings to get painted Silverstone. I'm going to see if they can skip painting over the Craft Square sticker on the underside of the mirrors though, so there's still a little carbon fiber showing.

Thanks Eddie! They really have changed the whole look of the car. I think the MCR hood has changed the look as well, just not to the same extent as the wheels. I still go back and forth on the stickers. I'm about 1/2 way through my current tires, and thought I'd ***** myself out and get trendy for a few thousand miles
