Yeah, no doubt!! I cancelled my first order due to the vendor not being up front about the time. While searching for a new vendor to purchase them from I had to get four new tires so that's all my mod money for now.

You have had such bad luck with people vandalizing your car huh. First cake, then beer now slashed tires no? Someone is really jealous of you haha, hot car hot fiance haha just messing. I just ordered some General G-MAX AS-03 to go with my new wheels and I had an option to pay like another $100 total and if anything ever happened to them, other than normal thread wear, they would be replaced. With your luck I wonder if you could get something like that with your new Pirelli's I think it is def worth the extra $100.

Yeah man! Cake, beer, slashed tires. I've even had small dents in the car that I have no idea how they've gotten there. Not sure if it was of natural causes or if someone did something, but either way PDR has gotten rid of them so that's good. I'm not sure what it is but people like to mess with it for sure!!

I may have to look into taht extra insurance on the tires just in case something crazy happens again. Let's hope not though!

Looking forward to seeing your car with the new wheels and tires!!

Ha thanks, man. It does look pretty good for doing it how I did it and in the conditions I was in, IMO.

I used plastic primer and then white paint for plastic. Then used a gloss clear.

I suggest, if you can, don't do it in windy conditions like I did. Haha. It was all I had though and it turned out okay for the most part.

Yeah I like the white interior trim a ton. Pics don't do it great justice as it looks kind of bright and even gaudy a bit (at least in my pics it does) but in person it's actually not too crazy and it's even subtle looking. It's just a bit brighter than the silver it comes stock.
