Glad you guys like the pics...yea I know a guy that does tint so I had him put 5% all the way around aka limo tint. It's a little hard to see out at night as far as backing up, but I like the even tint instead of lighter on the sides that alot of states require.

Yea. the chrome ones are nice but you gotta keep them clean. I think when I asked they were either 1400 or $1500. The standard wheels stayed on..hah.

I hope you're not too tired of black pics yet! Here's one of mine with my new clear side markers.

I like your polished rims, mmjames!

They were about 1800 total. The retail from the dealer is $500.00 then the may or may not charge to put them.

On line they are about $400.00 then you still have to mount them and worry about shipping.
Because of the sensors and the newness of it all, I didn't want to take any chances with a 3 party.
So I think my price was about $ 490 per.

It was a lot of money but I saw a set on a red with red/ black int. I had a feeling it would be worth it.

The dealer is now doing all of the high option demos with them, because of the demand for mine when they were finally completed.

I have not.... yet. I have to learn to be wild again. I have been driving a family car for five years or so. I am making up for lost time and soon I will be ready to Rock and Roll on the drag strip.

The vegas trip has some opportunities for this or maybe the next one. Also I am looking into a high speed driving school.

Wanting to race does not mean not preparing for it. One step at a time.

Anyone have pictures of a black 8 and ground effects? Debating whether to get those or a set of wheels.
