Looks good, sucks about getting backed into though.


I don't know how y'all cold weather people deal with "winter wheels"... I've been on stocks for 3 weeks between rims and it drives me crazy, luckily new ones are arriving soon. Stocks aren't bad but when you have nicer ones, it definitely makes me loath seeing my stockers haha

19's aren't offered in step lip gs4 so it's a negative on that. Stepped 19's look smaller too

I think the T1's are now discontinued, good luck buddy haha.

Wald rear will run you around $7-900 from vendors. Unless you were talking trunk spoiler, Wald trunk is $500ish. Both excluding paint

Sorry for turning your thread into a discussion board, at least you were the other side of the discussion though. Haha

Dam... In SoCal, its the law to have your front license plate! I never really understood the point of it, I mean when does it come in handy? Cops give you a ticket when they see you, even if your plate is on your dash... But I drive around without the front anyways. I hate how it looks. The ticket here is 100$ :P
Gorgeous looking car! I love the 2011+ front and great choice in rims
