Looks awesome! Looks like you did 5-lug conversion while you were there.
Want to sell it?

Re: rims and a couple inches
Wheels and drop helped, but you (come on, tell the truth..) buffed it out, didn't you?
Thought we wouldn't see that, didja? Nice ride. How far south in Texas are you?

Re: rims and a couple inches
Good eye, but he just waxed it, no buffing. I told him if he buffed it the paint would really pop. We're in Richmond, just west of Houston. Sorry to highjack your thread Son.
