Default Painted the lights on the CTS-V
I decided to change up the appearance over the weekend. So me and a buddy painted the fogs, side markers, brake, and reverse lights.

I'm ordering drilled and slotted rotors from brakemotive in a couple of weeks. So when those arrive I'll be painting the wheels, grills, and putting a light coat on the headlights. I'm also thinking about going jet stream blue with the calipers.
