Default Pictures of Girlfriend #2

Just the other day, I was able to get a deal on some wheels from my dealership! I always knew they were there, but until now I didn't have the money to buy them. Eventually, I hassled my manager to create a part number and sell them to me, considering they weren't in our inventory. Eventually, he decided to sell them at $100/wheel

After getting them mounted and such, I was waiting for a good day to clean the car and take some pictures. Unfortunately, the past few days we've had rain/snow/hail. The rain's this common this time of year, but snow and hail? Never happens in the NW. Anyway, we had a break of sun today and I immediately washed the car and got some pictures.

PS. This is my first time ever posting pics since joining

Some Info
Mesh front grille with no emblem, powder-coated dark SGM OEM 18s (staggered), 235/40R18 Eagle F1 All-Seasons, V-LED DRLs, MTEC 194 Parking Lights, MTEC 9006 Fogs, RVinyl Red-Outs, DI Chip Protect

















Gonna add more later on, hope you guys like em!

I agree with everyone else... you need to drop that bad boy. Your driveway makes it look like it's a 4x4. Other than that looking good.

It's looks good on your car. I know what you mean by the hail/snow. What's going on with the weather? I painted my OEM rims too, but I think it looks better on darker color IS.
