Default Progress of my car!

I got these on last week, but here are some pictures of the Linea Corse LC818. Now to save up for some coilovers. What do you guys think?

Rims look nice but general rule, always drop it before you get wheels

The Linea Corse LC818 is a popular choice

Did you plastidip your front grille?

All you need now is coilovers and you'll sure be receiving a lot of compliments.

Quick, sell a kidney on the black market so you can drop your car! I actually kinda like the caliper color btw.
