Cool man. That's a good color against the green. I guess you stayed with 15" rims? Any closer shots? Now once you get lowering springs on there, it'll look even better.

Thanks. I'll get some closer shots once I clean things up a little more. biggrin.gif I kept 15's because I just bought 15" tires a couple of months ago (lacking foresight about wanting to upgrade the rims) and I couldn't see wasting the cash and getting new ones. So, used rims for now, maybe once I wear these tires out I'll go for new and/or bigger. I'm holding off on the drop for right now as I've dropped far too much money already. Either once I need to replace the struts or I manage to increase my disposable income I'll see about lowering again. For right now, I've got SS-III replica front splitters coming which will go on as soon as I can paint them to match the mini-skirt and rims, I'm having my seats reupholstered (tan leather) within the month, and I'll be spacing the wheels out 20mm, probably in the next week or so. That's where my funding drops off. Of course, once I get all of that stuff finished, my engine will probably blow up!!! laugh.gif

Sorry about going on like this, but I just love these rims!
