Dustin, do you know what paint code you're using for the gold on those wheels ? it looks pretty correct. the gold I just painted my wheels with looks nice but it's not as close as what you have there.

Thanks HeavyMetal, you are correct. This is not a paint. Wheels take a ton of abuse and paint doesn't hold up well. So I get my wheels powder coated with PPG Sun Gold PCUT33100. It is incredibly correct. Very close on color.

leather door panel and dash pad are superb, good pick on using screws to secure the door panel to achieve a neat finish, the plastic or metal clips never seems to hold the panel close to the metal.
the paint job is very smooth too.

Hello, very nice your j10.
I wanted to ask who produces the decals because I have to do a restoration in Italy and I would like the same ones in photos.
Thank you

Phoenix Graphics is the company. BJ's Off Road is a vendor for them as well.

Looks great! Are those the door panels from BJs or are they custom?

They're custom. $100 for the pair. They are in the Levi pattern, but I didn't have enough buttons to recreate it. So I went this way.
