I like your rim selection but they look huge - are they 17's or 18's?
I like the blacked out front signals looks really stealthy... and your interior makes me miss my GS... I always loved the bubble dash...

nice ride! :2thumbsup:

Oh and what are you doing with your wraparound spoiler? selling it?
