Not that your car looks bad, the wheels just dont do it justice, just my opinion here's an example of what i mean by change the wheels!



BTW I've seen that new black lip style of wheels in forgiatos and wasn't feeling it, i think it only looks good on certain cars! just my two cents.

No desire to pile on, but a tint is needed. And those rims just don't do anything for the looks, imo. Otherwise it looks good.
