Big Congrats man, glad everything worked out well. Its funny, about 4 days after I ordered my wheels, I called Vince and he said "oh yeah this guy from ClubLexus called inquiring about wheels, I told him you just ordered a set" I was yelling like "No DAMMIT don't just be telling people what I'm doing" LOL The worst part was, he could not remember your name or handle, so I'm stuck there wondering who knows about my wheel order! LOL

Even though you didn't overnight your wheels (like my anxious ****) you still got them in great time. Really good considering you got an extra step (clearcoat)!

I think these things are gonna look very aggressive on the 1st Gen, especially from the rear with the new mufflers. I think you are almost doing these babies a dis-service posting unmounted pics. (Pot calling kettle black action for ya )

Like L4L said, I think this modded in America project is going to be nice

I have always liked the body style of the first gen gs and I just want to continue with it instead of going to a second gen..I do what I can for what's available for my car..6-12 weeks really sucks though..

Like I said the wheels are amazing and have fully surpassed my expectations..Just to give you an idea of the quality of iforged wheels I am posting a pic of the polished/clearcoated barrel, just to show their attention to detail..
