Well I finally got wheels after 3 years haha. Figured it was about that time. Don't mind the road rash on the bumper, its gonna get fixed in October. That's what happens when you DD a lowered car in NYC and the metro area. Now on to the pics.

5mm spacers are going on all around this week to really finish getting everything flush.

Actually, I liked the stock wheels better. I'm just not feeling the white... A gloss black I think I'd like better. But indeed its not my car :)


Edit, also, don't you feel the rear is a little plain compared to the front?

I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't just drool and talk about wetnaps...

Im gonna have to agree here. And I dont think it needs a double deck wing so you can clear the local airspace but Im thinking something a bit more subtle like an underbody diffuser for the rear bumper to balence the car our. Btw I love those fenders!

The fenders look like they are missing a rectangular chunk out of them from the side?

car looks clean

If im right I believe those are the ones styled after the GT500 cars, better aerodynamics to relieve pressure of the wheelwell.

Me and you think alike. I also don't like the white too much, I bought them with plans to powdercoat them matte black or gunmetal. Problem is everyone raves about the color and bothers me to keep them white. If I posted my Facebook wall you'd see them all complaining for me to leave the wheels white because they know I'm powdercoating them. Also, I have a small carbon fiber wedge spoiler and carbon fiber diffuser for the rear and carbon fiber splitters & canards for the front. Hopefully I get them on by the end of the month. After I install that stuff ill post pics of the completed exterior.

And the fenders are widebody FEED fenders. They have wide openings to keep the brakes cool on the track.

I like the white rims as well. They go good with your paint.
