Well I just got her in October of 08. So far its lowered on Tein S-techs, 18x8 +38 offset Kyowa KR-628 (currently saving for some RE30's), HKS turbo timer, and Prosport boost guage. Other goodies are currently on their way to me. I have been thinking about getting the centers of the wheels painted like a teal color or metallic purple. What do you guys think? good or bad let me know.
I apologize for the crappy cell pics

Car looks nice bro. Honestly, if I was you, I would stick to the original idea of doing the centers black with just the gold ring. That would be the hotness. Especially with everything else blacked out!! Very nice start tho!

I can dig it!
Only thing I am not feeling is the rims. But, if you like it, that's what matters.

Nice color! I'm back and forth on whether I like the wheels but all in all, it looks tight.
