Default New Mods... need help

Ok so my girl is spoiling me this year and finishing my car for me.... it so great lol but its hard to figure out what exactly i want. Its a variety of things. The paint im leaning towards a matte black or glacier frost mica. I have the auto couture kit already and im looking to get some auto couture aristo wheels. Probably a 19x11.5r and 19x9f. with a diamond cut finish and a high pollish lip with around a +20 offset in the rear. Im looking for a very aggresive fitment with the car slammed as much as possible with no rubbing issues. I just need some opinions on what you guys think as for as paint, coilovers, and the wheels. basically the options are endless. SHe loves me i guess you can say lol.. thanks for the input guys

first of all congrats on finding a rare woman that not only supports your moding but also buys them for you- im jelious- second lets see some pictures- for me its easier to see the vehicle to decide what would look good on it-

I'd say paint it a color no other SC has
this will sound crazy but what about a Ferrari color like yellow or a Lamborghini blue

but as far as rims, offset is the right idea... good luck

oh and hook me up with your girl's sister or mom or something...lol

yellow just doesnt look good on an SC no matter how it looks- theres nothing wrong with standing out but if your going to stand out pick a good color but to each their own- now matte black is a hot color but your vehicle has to have the right set up to pull it off like any color really-

the front wheels being 19x9+20 will fit fine. the rear at 19x11.5+20 will not fit under stock body unless you do some heavy fender work and some stretched *** tires. you will need to roll and pull the rears a lot to make it fit.

PM miltdog for details of his work equip ordeal.

yea well i would post pics of her mom but people take this seriously u know lol... i would get hre but i seen a lot of bent and cracked wheels from them. i wanna stay witht he auto couture line caus ei do have the ac kit but im thinking of grabbin most of their acessories also like plate frames, badges etc... BTW i did talk to milton today earlier on the phone and he is running a 11.5r +18 with a 5mm spacer= +13 and a -5 in th front lol... some savage fitment. im waiting on some pics for him to send to me to get some better ideas. He pulled off a 5.5 in lip in back with some camber so i may go with that size or drop in .5 in or 1 full in. Not sure yet.
