New Rims/Fogs/ and Waxed!

Well I detailed my car for a bunch of hours yesterday and today and took my front license plate off. I just got my rims put on last monday at RUF Auto Centre in Dallas. The fogs, CF accents, and RB screens were installed too (they were painted black). There are lots of different pictures that I took today so enjoy!

Thumbs up

Congrats, Excellent job all around, Just paint your calipers! By the way how is the ride quality with your H&R springs, also the alignment?

Alignment and ride quality is fine. None bothers me at all. I will probably paint the calipers in a little bit.

mixed feelings on the blue for the rims... like it in the moving pics, but something about the still shots bugs me I think. But, still looks good.
