Damn sweet job man! How long did this take you?

thanks guys, from start to finish, about 5 months, but if i add up the hours actually spent on them, about 24-35 hours. i was being really lazy throughout the 5 months

Looks great, only thing Id Suggest is a bigger tire, a 215/35 is way to low pro unless your tucking IMO. Other than that I think the wheels and car looks amazing
