My baby has new shoes!

I was worried that the gunmetal colour wouldn't work, but I love it! I'm getting my winter wheels done in gunmetal instead of black too.

I'm done with the whole non-OEM wheel stuff, too expensive, too much work. If anyone wants a set of Forgestar F14 rims cheap and can pick them up, look in the for sale section this weekend!

Looks good, I like the color combo. Have you thought about a drop?

Thanks! I can't believe how much I like it! I feel like a total wierdo just walking outside to look at my car

I was thinking about it at one point, but had pushed it down the list a bit to be honest. How expensive is it to do? My goal at the moment is to make the car look good - so the aero sides, rear diffuser, little CF inside are the next things on the list.

But now you mention it, it really could do with a drop couldn't it?

Damn...more ramen noodles on the menu!

I hear you!

When we got our 2013 I ordered the sport package and had them chrome the wheels... so much easier and it all works!

Check out the license frame; my wife LOVES bling...

hywel, those wheels look great on your car, the color of the wheels and the car really compliment each other. Nice choice of color.

It was a total fluke that they work together - absolutely no planning on my part - just dumb luck!
