I always like when people do something a bit different so good on you. Loved the sticker bomb/wrapped wheels on Maxis car (Zac from Freshest Walls' sister) but really not a fan on the wagon. Looked....odd. Like you'd borrowed the wheels off a drifter for the day or something? Just my opinion though ;)

Unwrap the wheels and respray will be 100x better :D (and of course the car going and running right! Lol)

So it's staying the same colour. Thought you were getting full respray? Or wrap? :scratch: Change of plans?

Its getting wrapped . However to get wrapped you still need completed panels not ones with didnts and that in it . So got them painted anyway .
