Default A couple shots

Haven't really posted anything on my current project. But roughly 06 430. Current mods are just grom audio adapter, Megan ez coils, mc3 croix, 225/35/20 255/30/20 tires. Having not had a passenger in the car after putting wheels and suspension on. I have realized I need air lol. So that will be the next mod. Anyway, onto pictures I took yesterday strictly out of boredom.

Here's the thing, I don't want to raise my car any higher than it is now. Having one adult passenger almost destroyed my front fender. I don't know about you, but I'd consider it a necessity at this point. But you might be right, 99.9% of the time, i'm riding solo.

Also a small back story on the wheels, I bought them from a member on here last year. They weren't the color I wanted but the wheel style was what I wanted. I almost pulled the trigger on some vertini milano's but decided to hold off.

Here's how they were:

destroyed by ups, who the hell knows how...(one front and one rear like this)

So I had them refinished by a local guy. Had the lips polished up and the faces coated in a black chromish color.


When I first seen them, I thought crap, they aren't the color I wanted. But then I took the wheel into the sun and the shine on the coating came through. Needless to say I was a very happy camper.

I've tried quite a bit of running light bulbs and they were always too blue. I was going to order vled 5000k 194's but ended up finding some cheaper ones on amazon called kolite. They are as pure of white as i've found. I'd post a link, but I don't think you can do that.
