New Wheels and Headlights on my 55

Just mounted up a set of 20" Incurve IC-S5 in a custom HyperSilver finish. 20x9 & 20x10.5. Have yet to lower it, but I'm thinking a 1" drop max for me. I also had my headlights painted in a flat black...didn't completely black them out though--added a little twist and left some silver. Headlights along with the painted front lip was done here in Ohio by my uncle who owns a few paint shops. His work is second to none so if anyone would be interested in getting their headlights done, shoot me a PM. All comments (good and bad) welcomed.
(Car isn't completely finished..still have a few more mods I'm looking to do)

Thanks!

Looks badass man! Love the rims and the custom touch to your headlights and front spoiler. Did you just bake the lights apart? The lenses look brand new. What did you use on them?

Thanks bro! Appreciate it. What my uncle actually did was use a heat gun instead of baking them. He felt more comfortable doing it that way. As for the lenses, I first clay barred them...Then put a coat of glaze polish & buffed it off. And lastly buffed them again with Pink Luster wax. Definitely pleased with how they came out.
