    The fogs and lip look great, really subtle. But those wheels are fapworthy

    Hate the wheels, sorry. The car is too modern and angular for a "classic" wheel.... Needs something crazy like NT03s or Advan SA5...
    The VOLK GT-Ps looked great on there.

    I actually think the wheels look good on there.

    Car looks great, bori. Careful, though, with adding stuff to it all the time. It'll start looking too modified and won't look as good. Later, QD.

    I agree. That car would really pop with some quality modern wheels. I'm thinking these.......

    Car looks very nice. You've done an awesome job with this build.

    I agree that's there is probably a better wheel choice out there, but these don't look bad at all.

    Yeah, but "nothing ventured, nothing gained" In the end it's all just personal preference

    I love it all. I wouldn't change the exterior at all! now just get it moving a bit quicker. Does that motor come in any other vehicle?

    I didn't see the interior, but if it's black, you should do a black suede headliner and accents. I did mine and it made a HUGE difference.
