Chicago Spring!

mods are happening now and should done by next week (black grill, black vents, black door trim (previously atlas), rear and front skid plates painted black and mesh around fog lights painted as well.....had a scratch on a wheel so opted to refinish all the wheels in gunmetal) I'm excited to see the finished work and will post pics when it is done.
Cheers!

Very nice - I'll be there the last week in May. Is it going to be warm?

End of May is typically very nice weather here, should be between about 69° (21°C) and 80° (27°C). The day you arrive will be the Memorial Day holiday which is the unofficial start of summer. Lots of things happening here around that time.

Car looks great -- would love full before and after shots! Good luck with the mods.

Okay. Lot of work done in the last four days and I will create a better before and after thread in the next week or so when I get a chance to take some better pictures of the after. I picked up the car and the weather was not very cooperative. The car looks so much better in person than these quick pictures show.

I ended up getting quite a few parts of the car sprayed in Santorini black to match the paint. The wheels were going to be powdercoated gunmetal but I ended up with the powdercoating in black and am happy with them.

Here are a few phone pics after I picked up the car.
