What does being new in America have to do with being a ricer?

Here are mine: did em myself!











Since those pics, i installed hotchkis springs and put on my gramlights.

I ATTEMPTED to paint the grams myself, but them being powdercoated made the paint stripping process near impossble- even using aircraft paint remover (in an aerosol can). So i ended up getting the gramlight 57s powdercoated black, and then did a red lip myself.
Same color combo and look of how i painted my stockers

Not spray can mine were prof. painted (base and cleared). Power Coating weakens the strenght of the rim (heat of pc re-structures the metal of the rim - makes them brittle - thats bad).
