That front end is awesome! Wald is really making some nice kits these days. A custom front add-on carbon fiber splitter would look insane on that too!

That back add-on seems a bit too busy...did this quick photoshop just for fun to see what it would look with fewer lines.

What do you fellas think?

well I have to start looking at new wheels.

the new wheels I put on have some loose bolts. The dealer said that those style wheels, once any bolts unlocked will never ever ever be able to get retorqued or stay on without being loose. It's a design flaw in those wheels. Even with locktight, etc they will come loose again after 10 miles. They've had this issue for years and just no way around it.

So I am gonna contact the seller and tell him he sold me a defective product.

So with that said, I may just put back my silver wheels and look at another set.

will not do 22's, so 21's would be best.

What should I get and what size tires.

thanks for the advice.

I think black centers polished lips would look best!

With the VIP look you've put together, maybe it makes most sense to go with maybe VIP wheels. Autocouture wheels (for the current look I'd go with Magnifique, but I don't think they make 21"...it leap frogs from 20 to 22 on their site) or maybe some Work Wheels (I like the Euroline SL)




But if you don't care about the VIP theme, I'd get some Mansory wheels in black centers with polished lips:



Stock wheels won't look appropriate; not with all those aerodynamic mods on there =) But that's just my .02 cents, it's already a beautiful car! everything else is icing on the cake.
