On 4-16-08, my car was hit at an intersection. The idiot was driving this...

cali_rider_831's 2006 Pontiac G6

...took the pic from my passanger side mirror.

He got my hubcap, tire, wheel liner (plastic in wheel well), bumper. The worst part about him was he did not speak english nor spanish.

According to his insurance, Progressive, it was $500 worth of damage to my car. The stupid part about it was how long it took. Idiots at Progressive were actually "investigating" the accident cuz they said it was my fault that the other driver hit me at the intersection where the other driver had a stop sign and I didnt. Progressive finally sent me a check for $502.68 on 5-2-08. The other driver got lucky cuz I was about to hunt his ass down that weekend. And since it was only 3 little scratches on my paint on the bumper, I didnt want to paint it just yet...SO, thats $300+ in my pocket.

This is what I did with the cracked hubcap.cali_rider_831's 2006 Pontiac G6 Wanted to know how it would look if I did do it to all.

I put the water mark on the pics. The pics are to show the difference between the store-bought eye lids and my custom ones. Its not that I dont like them, its just that the RK eye lids were not what I was looking for. I also added vinyl, that I custom made, to other exterior parts of the car.

I also removed the the square "GM" emblems and the "Pontiac G6" emblems. It looks better.

A smooth and clean look. The key hole looks smaller and better. Blends to the car more.

Clean ride man, looks really well put togeher, like the black/chrome mix.

I dont really like the Matte blue color, but Im a really big fan of the Matte black. And I have to agree with Mark that it would look much better with the AIT front bumper. If you go with the black, you might want to make your rims a matte black as well. (leave the chrome lip tho)Even tho I dont like the matte blue doesnt mean not to do it, cause it would definitely be very different. Keep me posted man. Im anxious to see what you decide to do.
