    As some of you may know Alex bought my rear valance. I went on vacation and left the valance in a hidden spot outside. She picked it up and left me the money when she could have easily just stole the valance.

    So Alex I just wanna thank you for being a kind and honest person.

    I cannot wait to see the outcome of this new project.

    So I got my wheels back today-- good to go on that point!

    BUT-- picked up the 20th lips from paint and something went wrong with the color match and it came out more t-red than matchstick red.. so I have to drop them back off tomorrow and pick them up Wednesday.

    Leaving Thursday morning, but I have two more days of school so time is limited.

    I have the worst luck

    I didn't end up getting it filled. i didnt get to properly communicate to the shop how i wanted it done before i had to go back to school. being back and forth between states is not easy. but it looks great on the car regardless. they both look awesome-- just not the right color.
