Hey all!
I had to take the Volks off to have some minor repairs done, so that gave me a chance to clean the calipers and snap some pics.

Also, I finally got the SEIBON trunk installed. Fitment was incredible, but I think that's due to the dedication of my body shop.

Better pics once the wheels are back on!

LOL - thanks. I actually like the orange - it contrasts nicely with the black color of the car.

That is by FAR the best fitting Seibon trunk lid I've ever seen. Usually the fitment is terrible on those things - props to your installer!
