Charlie, did you buy yours gloss black from jonji or did you do it yourself?

Alright, got the grill painted gloss black, but I accidentally touched it right after my last coat so I'm gonna have to sand that part down and redo that spot. Here's how it's looking now:

Hmm, I wasn't planning to because it kinda matched the rims (chrome lip, gloss face) but it's something to consider.

Hey man, i saw a coupe similar to yours driving home from Vegas on the 15 fwy Sunday night. It was white, had black wheels, quad or dual exhaust, HID's and other mods, didn't really notice other details though. He caught up next to me on the right side, cruised at same speed for a few seconds, then i got stuck behind another car. Was this you??

Damn I wish I were in Vegas right now. Nah I'm in S. Carolina right now. Yeah, there's been several white modded coupes around the forums lately.

You know, I was actually thinkin about that, since there are some cars that do look good with it. But then I totally steered away from it and didn't wanna waste money on finding out if it does look good.
