Yes the wheels are fully brushed and cleared. Faces and Lips.

Thanks, that onicamber crap is not for me. I need to be able to drive my car. I actually took out all camber before I brought it to the shop. So I can camber in if I go bigger in the future.

So to continue with several other things that are going on/in the car:

RE Audio XXX powered by US AMPS monoblock






I had purchased a set of aristo headlights that were ECE from a japanese ebay seller a few years back in order to use for a retrofit. I had these lights finished in the end of 2010 by Rich from HIDILLUSIONZ. LS430 projectors in the lowbeam with Bixenon E55/745Li projectors in the high beam.

thank you as well for not doing the rediculous camber, love the black interior, wheels (all brushed sic) are they Kartie?, and the retro looks amazing, i think you should paint the schroud brushed like the wheels. cant wait to see the rest of the pics!!!!!
