Thx man for your comment. The jambs and boot are painted as well. Except the engine bay... I didn't bother to take out the engine and paint inside, just to save my *** some $$.

I got the wing from champion motorsport. Werks products are top notch!

Also, I would like to repeat an earlier question, what is the finish on the wheels? Looks darker than alloy...

I have to say it is extremely tastefully done... Congrats. After owning a cobalt car, and debating buying a cobalt turbo, I agree that Riviera IS a better color!
Thank you! I have the DRL conversion done locally by one of the mechanic shops. Costed me 900 for the labour...

It looks awesome. Great job. Not a fan of front plates or double wings, but on this car the wing looks great. Thanks for the post.

LOL. Yea I hate the front plate idea as well. Gotta explain where there's a plate on stick on the bumper in this photoshoot. Its because I have got a stick plate (copy of the real plate, made it into sticker and stick on the bumper, didn't wanna drill holes on the bumper) just like this panamera in the picture. So SR Auto has put a plate to cover it due to privacy issue. So there's a plate. But THank you for the kind words!

That is one glorious ride!!!
Lets face it, going from black to this... man oh man you've got some big ones on ya
It turned out amazing, good for you!

Re; drl, (outside of the electrical work) did the shop just swap the whole turn signal assemble (if so where did they get it with the white led's) or did they change the actual led's (if so...how?!).

I'd love to know how it was done as this is something I'm dying to have done on mine too .

Thanks!!

Sid.

Just to remind that $6k is in Canadian, AND the labour in Canada is pretty damn expensive comparatively.
well said!

Now post some new pictures of the Brembo GT BBKs!
