Def looks very nice. I still need to order some clear corners for mine. Another nice mod is painting the calipers doesnt cost much just takes a lil bit of effort but looks really dam nice. Very nice ride

Thanks for the compliments.

As far as I know the Chrome wheels are stock, they came with the car.
I am the second owner (8K miles). So far I have only added the clear
corners and stealth bulbs, interior red LED footwell lights to match the
rest of the interior, all-weather floor mats and the rotary-shaped volume
**** (still waiting for it to arrive).

The aluminum dash trim kit, that was also installed before I bought it.
However, one like it can be purchased here: http://www.therpmstore.com/product_i...3201d7ef4cc535
I really like the look with the aluminum interior, it is also carried out on the door
trim, air vent accents and the rear console.

I've only had this car for about a month and I am so glad spring is finally here (chicago area). This is going to be an awesome summer!

Cheers Shinkas!

I haven't had time to take my own pics.
These are ones the dealer took just before I went to pick up my Shinka.
Picked it up 2 weeks ago. 17,790 miles I think the $21 was a decent deal.
New tires put on the day before I got it too.

Clear corners are pretty much first on my list. Then I am going to look into getting my XM and Ipod hooked up.
Sunroof wind deflector, paint my calipers, some LED work inside, some work with the engine covers, exhaust maybe.

I am in NW Georgia.

when i did my search for rims....i looked at a lot of them....but i had made a decision early on that they were gonna be either gold or bronze....i think the car needs something lighter cuz its already dark....gold and/or bronze seemed to be the mostly suited colors for offseting and matching the BCM...

just my 0.02 cents
