Calipers are done!

Took about four and a half hours, three coats, one kit is PLENTY.

The color is VERY close, I didn't get the custom color, just their orange.

First coat takes forever, our front calipers (GT) are very large.

Once the last wheel gets in, the car will be stunning.

I know American Muscle is a site sponsor and I know many of their products are great.

The fourth wheel came (To replace the damaged one) and it too was damaged.

I called and they have set up all my labels and return, I am truly bummed, I was going to take it in tomorrow morning, they were all set for me and now...... I am back to square one.

From the honesty department, they did say its their busy season and the wheels don't come packaged that well, this is a common problem recently.

Like I said, I don't want to bash them, but if this happens to you, you won't be happy.

Black 5.0 emblem

So, while I'm waiting on the new wheels from American muscle, I went and purchased a set of black emblems with a shiny finish and install them today

19" AMR Charcoal wheels are in and on

A new delivery came and all four wheels are undamaged, a big thank you to American Muscle for the service to get me what I wanted and take good care of me in getting them to me undamaged.

It was a challenge and they have had problems, were happy with the results.

Here are the photos.

So..... After a few weeks with the matte finish wheels, I found YOU CANT CLEAN THEM WELL. American Muscle worked with me to change them out to the new Dark Stainless.

Here are a few shots.

New wheels. Nothing against anyone, but I wasn't happy (nuff said). I saw the VP5 from MRR and it was love at first sight.


Love them

Took Gossamer for a spin today. Found some dead end road with a paved sand covered cul-de-sac and decided it was time to make the donuts.

I took a few glamor shots of her.
