Believe it or not there's no vinyl. Its actually Pasti-Dip. It lucked out too because I painted it with Plasti, then a few months later someone with a trailer hitch backed into me in a parking lot. I just sanded it down, bondo filled it and redid the pasti dip...you'd never know

I was stationed in Spain and had EVERYTHING in my sig shipped there from the usa. The vendor must send things via the usps (the mail). Feel free to pm me if you have any questions.

Nice. What kind of bikes are those?

Maltese thatplastidiplooks great. I'm liking that look a lot, but ill have to spend time withenew front end before being sure of what it can handle in that regard. I'm not super fond of the 2011 face.

I love the stance of your car.
What size rims are you using? Offset? Spacers?
Also suspension? Coilovers? Lowering Springs??
Thanks for your help.
I want to lower my Mini John Cooper Works.
