Genuine Mazdaspeed kit. Black on Black

Sup everyone.just wanted to say 'Hi'. I haven't been a very active participant in the forums but I've gotten a wealth of info from it these past few months. I finally took some pics. New 19" 'Japan only' Arthur Exchange wheels coming from the motherland in a few months. Stay tuned.

I think he meant Adrian-1, i'm sure you've seen his car on here before.. but if not, they should come up quickly with a search.

arthur exhange is a line from rays right? New rims are going to look good. Maybe because i'm a bit bias towards mesh wheels. Hiros look good too, reminds me of how cortcs car use to look like.
