Looks good. Id gloss mine but then id have to gloss everything else too, and tho its hard to see from the pics the sapphire metallic has a shine to it, not like a gloss but a shine.

everything i wanted painted is done. 7 layers of matte on the rims, 2 layers of satinizer on top of it. everything else is 5 layers of black plasti dip.

Wasnt too hard was it? Turned out great, i have the exact same rims. IMO those rims black at least look better than the alloy. Should hit the valance too tho.

Why dosent anyone do the bumpers, I don't understand. Wanting to get rid of the chrome is the point right? You and @Tonyrodz drive me crazy with your chrome bumpers lol.
I did my bumper and grey lower valance at the same time. Both holding strong after 2 years. I thought for sure the valance would start peeling being plastic and it flexes, but it's holding on tight. And the black valance looks 100x better than the grey imo.
