Congratulations Kitlz!
It's a beaut. I see you stuck with silver again. Can't go wrong really... So easy to keep clean.
Any plans for it?

Thanks. The only plan at the moment is to figure out all the new toys and features, LOL! And you got it right about silver. Swirls are a non-issue. Plus it looks clean even when dirty.

I have to say I was sad leaving my '10 behind.

Over the weekend installed window visors and plasti dipped the wheels ( still debating whether to keep them or not)

What do you guys think?

^^ They look good, did you spray the Glossifier over the Gunmetal? It's hard to tell in the pics.

Yeah, they would probably look good a little shinier.. I know you were undecided on keeping it on, but I would probably leave it on through the winter to protect the wheels.. It would be interesting to see how the Dip holds up too.

Vince yours look very nice

JT i was thinking about it. I would really like dark chrome color on the wheels, powder coat is about $600-700 in Brooklyn for a good job, but I've been also looking at F Sport wheels, with tires on craigslist or eBay they come up to about 1k, and judging by the fact that for next winter i will need new tires i was thinking maybe it would be better to save up now and don't powder coat but instead when i will have to change tires go for used F Sport wheels.

I hear what you're saying, decisions, decisions... In your case I would probably wait and when you decide to get new tires then make the call if you're going to get the F Sport wheels or powder coat the OEM's.

I can relate, I "flip flopped" for 6 months in regards to either getting new wheels, upgrading to 20" tires and wheels, or powder coating the OEM wheels on my CTS-V. In the end I decided to powder coat and I'm very happy how they came out.

Looks awesome! I might try losing my rails for that sleek look too!
