What a complete transformation. It definitely came out looking real nice. What are your plans for the headlights, high beams, and taillights? I hope you keep them unpainted and original.

acutally its not black. lol. cant see it till its buffed out but its a azzarati paint code. with a added metallic. it has green in it metallic. depends on your angle..
I am using the black housing headlights now but i may look for the stock ones with a custom graphite interior housing i saw some before.
