young1tran, welcome! go ahead and introduce yourself in the intro thread, and if you have a picture of your g, you can post it there as well =)
What wheels were you running and do you happen to have any pictures. I love the color of my 18 stock wheels. To me it makes the car look a little "classier" for the lack of a better word to where a darker wheel looks more "BA" but I kind of want the classy look if that makes sense. This decision needs to be done because I have spent way way to much time in the last 3 days looking at wheels. It is literally between these two wheels. One of which will be ordered probably by Saturday if I get some decent opinions here or on gdriver....

I would say u said it right in the differences between those two choices in wheels. I went with graphite wheels for the bada$$ look and then smoked a lot of other parts on my car to keep the theme. I would say whatever choice u do, just keep the rest of ur car consistent with that theme u chose. U can't go wrong with either choice bud!

Trevor - I DO want to thank you for the recommendation for the Battery Tender. Picked up mine last weekend. My battery was so dead, the charger needs atleast 3amps to even start charging which it had less than that. So hooked up the FX to it for 5 mins just to get a charge(didn't try and start), and then just plugged it in. Noticed yesterday morning that my battery is good to go Fully charged and in trickle mode.

Tevi - I would HIGHLY recommend this for your car since you store it, and Dan you possibly as well. Mike...you cheat and go and drive your car every other week so you don't count
Man... I've been out of the loop. Best wishes on the promotion and based on our earlier conversation I'd say the trunk induced stressed is almost over

Stuff keeps popping up and I've had a lot of unexpected expenses. Starting to wonder if I'll be able get that bumper on before FL It's not really worth doing if it takes away from my gas and party $$$... we'll see.

Way ahead of you on the battery charger

Peng, I have made a decision. You don't need to spend the time on it! But I appreciate it anyway

Dan not going to lie, I looked at your car today at work on my phone and that basically made my decision

Your car is going to look SICK slammed.

I just hope my wheels will be a similar color and not too dark (spoiler alert lol)

Even if your wheels are darker, I think that is alot better than lighter. The more contrast doesn't hurt with our paint color... Depending on how the sun hits my wheels, they can look PRETTTTTY light. You will be fine with any gunmetal/graphite/dolphin grey wheels
