Wow very thorough job. Looks good!

What wheels are those? Looks like a set I want to get for my sportcross.

Thanks guys! I've always liked this color so when it's time for a makeover i did it. They really do a thorough job no shortcuts. Can't wait to get it back from the shop!

Those rims are LM reps by ESM wheels, they're nice and clean but i'll be getting new rims soon.
