Those wheel's look lost in those arches. Not so keen on the front but like the black roof and spoiler.

Well, I was thinking about but it would be a problem with the arches as they are already rubbing, believe it or not the car is sittin on 215/45/17.

I think it's the lack of the arch liners which make it look odd, but apart from that good job

looks quite smart actually i like that ![Smile Smile](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif)
needs lowering reeeeally badly though get the wheels spaced rightly and some 205/40 17's and you should be able to get the right stance for that to pull the kit off perfectly

obviously it's been done properly and not cheaply but I cannot see the point, looks a bit silly and ott to me, not worth the money that has obviously been spent IMO ![Confused Confused](images/smiles/icon_confused.gif)

I think it looks pretty good apart from the front bumper, think its a bit rude. Other than what other people have said about the wheels its a nice car.

I think most people don't realise there is a bigger selection of rear light's until they join somewhere like here, Most of them would go on ebay and see lexus light's for £40 and buy them.

I respect your opinions u posted but i mean, all the mods on this car cost me just under £1000, this includes alloys, respray and bodykit, lights, sports seats.
