I like what you did with the wheels. Did you strip off all the paint and have them polished, then coated with clear coat or clear power coating?

I'm interested in this as well. My wheels are really starting to look bad, so wouldn't mind doing what you did.

Congratulations! She's beautiful. Is that exhaust stock? The tips look bigger in that pic for some reason.

Thanks. The exhausts are Magnaflow 14816. Yes the tips are huge. I'm happy about how the previous owner mounted them because he made sure to center them perfectly. There is enough space around the exhaust so as not to melt the rear apron but they are not hanging low down at all. It was a very neat and tidy installation.

Yea it looks like it was done quite well; nothing makes the rear end of an otherwise brilliant car look like s*** so quickly as a crooked set of pipes. I see C6 Vettes with this problem all the time, with their stock pipes. I can't stand it.
