Better pics of the wheels. These are 19's with Super Black Coat optional finish.

The 21's will be step lip and Titan Silver finish. One of the first sets in North America confirmed.

Crap - accidentally posted in my intro thread... *facepalm*

Finally got around to installing the PS controller. Just some quick pics - excuse the dirty tires and overexposed front. It's like -36C with the windchill haha

I was hoping it could go a little lower, but it might just look this way cause it's on the tiny stock 19's and a huge sidewall tire.

Absolutely plug and play. No wiring at all.

Thanks guys!

Got my LED's for the Nike lights in today. Man, I gotta say - that was the biggest pain in the *** install ever for just two bulbs. lol such a weird and awkward location to get your hand in somehow... but I ended up getting it done.

The rear foot wells dont need to be replaced. Just remove the covers over them and they are bright white. The fronts are a different story. The puddle lights aren't hard to change. Cary (hyper) has a thread about it.
