Yeah, I had to get pics before the sun went down. I'll get better shots with the DSLR later.

Needs clear corners and a drop. I've always wanted to be the one to tell somebody lol. I think the rims look good though, but that's pending better pictures since I have to use some imagination right now.

wheels look ok... enjoy cleaning em... car needs a tint/spoiler though.
it doesnt need a drop that bad. you can still autox in stock class if the offset is 45-55 if you dont drop.

the Wheels are pretty sweet, i like the mesh style with a Lip~

but the car itself seems naked with a nice set of shoes... any other mods ur aiming for next???
its like a stripper with no clothes on but with some sexy *** stilettos on.
