Your car makes me want to spend too much money on rims and start trying to pull my fenders.

Finally have some update on the car:

I was super busy for the past month and don't have time for the soarer. It was parked on my driver way until last week. I drove it to the body shop and get everything ready. Following will be done at the shop:
- Install new bumper
- Fixed and reinforced side skirt
- Redo All four fenders
- Repaint the whole car
- Install 97+ kouki tail tight

here are some pic as of today:

New Replica Vertex bumper, my friend already tried his best to fit the bumper but stupid replica looks like it was warped.

at stock ride height those wheels will stick out like a JEEP rock-crawler.

you need to really lower the car and work the rear fenders, most likely wider front fenders, in order for it to look "right."

C-Unit PM'd you about those wheels.

18x11 -17.... Good luck. Charles' rear wheels are 18x11 +0 and look how far his stick out.... and he is slammed! Widebody/stupid amount of camber can make anything fit though I guess! My opinion is that those are too aggressive though.
