Yeah it's Satin Silver. I got it brand new with black emblem from DB8 on the IS forums. He also had some black ones available but I thought the silver flowed better with my wheels.

If you look real close, I have purple titanium bolts on my rear plate. I have a set for the front too, but don't have my bracket back from powder coat yet so I'm not running a front plate.

And the bolts are all over my engine bay also, I just don't have any pics.

Thank you. The wheels are SSR Koenigs, also known as Koenig WRV's. Although I have conflicting info from Koenig on who actually made them. Koenig-Special gave the rights (license to use the name Koenig) to companies to produce the wheels. Walter from KS said that they were made by Modia in Japan (later called Modex) and that SSR had nothing to do with it.

The wheels have SSR cast into the face, and the stickers say Speed Star Co. LTD. (the same as my set of SSR MS1's did). They also have Modia or Modex cast into it.

Either way, you can find them listed as SSR Koenigs or Koenig WRV's. And they are obviously discontinued

Thanks I do slide it when I can, but having stock power with 255's and less than -1.5* of camber in the back doesn't help much lol.

I'm working on getting a boost build going. Picking up a bunch of parts for maintanence soon (60k and 90K) and a few other things before I piece together a kit. It's gonna take a while but it'll be worth it!

And when I need tires I'm probably going down to 215/35/18 and 245/35/18 so I can go lower Maybe throw a spacer in the rear too.
