Someone hit my car from the back, which left minimal damnge, but required the rear bumper to get painted. So had the bottom part painted a semi-gloss black while it was in there. As for the wheels, I've had them for about a year, for those wondering what they are, CCW SP500s 19x10 19x11. Thinking of changing them to some I-Forged aeros w/ black centers, but still undecided.

Funny story tho guys, I was taking pictures of my car and the lighting was horrible (you'll notice there are a ton of clouds everywhere), then all of a sudden God opened the clouds for a brief moment and threw some sun for this shot. I think he has a thing for the Vettes
