well my car is going in to get resprayed in a couple weeks

its going white but unsure about smoothing

what do you guys think about getting the arches smoothed in and the bumpers or just the arches etc?

this is the car in question



im getting multi spokes in white or maybe white speedlines

ive always wanted a white car with white wheels though and plus the car could do with a respray

i like the front bumper as it aint too much but its different from standard

once i lower the fornt again it'll look good
