I kind of like the fact that it's subtle and fits in so well that it may not even be noticed.

Black mirrors and roof look great on black cars...

P.S. I forgot to tell you I got your stuff in the mail.

Thanks man! Lol

I sold my spare carbon fiber diffuser already locally and decided to paint the carbon fiber one on my car gloss black. After wrapping the exterior the carbon fiber just wasn't matching at all compared to when it was pearl white.

Keep up the great work on the car man

Finally you get some fat tires in the rear. But I think you may catch some flak for switching from Work to Vossen, lol (not from me) Looks good!!
What else you got, come on

Maybe, but those are the big balla rotary forged Vossens, so that weight is about 20% less vs. their cast line.

Nice looking setup Ryne, still love those T7Rs but those Vs are mighty fine too.

Thanks guys. I build my car for myself, although concurrence can feel nice. I LOVE the new fat tires our back. These wheels are super light for 20" and look great.

Sorry Venom
