It's all in the details

I've been spending some time doing a bunch of little things. Rear taillight trim was faded and had over spray on them. I masked them up and shot them with some "body trim' black and they turned out really good. I also picked up a pretty decent rear deck in piece in black, black brake light housing, trunk carpet and repainted the plate that holds the carpet in place at the trunk opening. To tell you how sick I am, every bolt that comes off the car gets cleaned with a tooth brush and then shot with black semi gloss. I doubt anyone will notice any of these little things, but I want to "sweat the details" that's what makes it fun.
I also got the Black SSR's mounted up on the tires....now I need to decide if I want to have a set of the Gold SSR's powder coated black or have the black rears powder coated Gold. I mounted the gold and blacks on their own side and now I just have to figure out which way to go. The Gold wheels really make the paint "pop" in the sun, but once I have the Zenki Black lip and the black body moldings back on, black wheels may give it that "sinister" look. I'm not in a big rush to decide, but I'll have to eventually :)
