Aye, dude I can really appreciate a good looking car. I can also really hate one.

Take my car for example, my paint.. is horrible. If my paint were shiny, and my tails were in good condition, my car would be flawless on the exterior. And it is also amazing how much different a paint job can make on a car.

If you could make your car look like that for $500CDN, you would be my hero. Maybe $500CDN minus paint. Maaco paint won't work, since you are painting the car a different colour.

I also like the T-Type rims [the rims you have] better than the others. I also like the flat black look better on the LE/SE. Gloss on SSE [like merlin'*]. Oh yeah, SSE rims [like mine or merlin'*] are the ****, as far as rims go.

Man that does look awesome. The flat black reminds me of the Buick Grand Nationals.

And talking about bad paint....



Can anyone top that? Although since then I have sanded the white crud off the fenders and hood just to make it look a little less worse. I have the same style rims as justin and merlin, but I think I like the gold ones repins has on his Bonne are the best.

I have only seen one Bonne with my gunnmetal grey and the gold rims, and I think it looks awesome.
