the bumper is off, cause i bought the car when it was accidented, and the bumper was cracked, so i put the stock one back on.

The Spacer's are already ordered, they will be flush with the fender...

I didn't like the Chrome, so i painted it Flat Black, Look's better then it did befor.
No i wont buy no rim's cause im not made of money,if a good deal pops buy then sure why not.

The Tire's are good quality, but you wouldnt be able to tell from those picture's.

The body kit came with the car, it's not half bad. it's not the best, but its better then stock look.

and to the polish a turd guy, no idea wtf u mean..

But to everyone who enjoyed thank's, it was cost effective on my behalf.

Ill take some more pics in the sun, since i do understand that it look's like black holes, and the sun wasnt present at the time.

Nothing like having to defend yourself on a car forum; why your car looks the way it does.

At least you painted over the fake rivets so they're harder to notice. Too bad offset can't be improved with paint.

I would have left them alone and bought spacers or saved for wheels that were intended for a RWD

You painting them black just made the color contrast even worse and actually made them look even more sunken in.

they just look darker due to the shade, and the hood is fine, its the bumper that not on properly and guess what the trunk is crooked too, all on da todo list.

spacers are orderd already, and for the price it cost me to da rim's it was worth it.
