Alright! So Ikera's "My sh!t Cadillac" thread has inspired me to make a build thread for my CTS.
First off is the base that I have to work with

Now the reason I named her The MonsterCadillac is due to my love of the record label Monstercat. I am a lover of EDM and they publish some of the best IMO. I plan on adding decals of their logo and also of the artist logos as well. I will also be using this as a flagship for my little side job that I named Brownies (last name and the name of my grandfathers old mechanic shop) Currently I just do house calls and nothing crazy as far as income. I hope I can use my CTS as a show piece at car shows and the like to showcase my work.
This is not going to be a excessively updated log since I am doing this as I have the extra funds available and taking it all one step at a time. I will be posting any repairs and that as well in this log.
ON TO THE PICTURES!!
My first mod was adding these chrome strips to the grill (also changing all the gold logos to chrome)
Next came plastidipping the rims since the chrome was looking rather bad
