Oranges are yummy. Estoril 2.0

Long story short, asshole ran me off the road. All four fikses were bent BAD. 2 months of ye ole wheel shop magic.

Rims were in terrible shape before, scuffs, bends, chunks missing, bad.

Since the wheels were gonna be taken apart I decided to have them painted as well. Color is lamborghini arancio orange (pearl orange).

just a tease, photoshoot tonight. its hard to capture the color, in the sun its a light orangish white.

color matched would have been pretty interesting, for some reason the orange on blue doesn't work for me.
