Thanks. I thought about the shadow line, but I like the way the trim ties in with the wheels...

Hi guys,
I am sorry, I forgot to check this thread for the last few days. Thanks for the complements. I am going to hold off on the drop for now. I am not sure I want to drop it. I am doing the shadowline and I am going to do the black out kidney grills.
BingoBonzo,
I will check on the wheel manufacturer when I get home (it's on the paperwork). They are Italian, 18 inch. Since, I bought them here in Germany they weren't cheap - I had to pay in Euros. They were 1500 euro, about $2300 with the tires installed and they moved my TPMS over from my stock 138s.

BingoBonzo,
The Wheels are Eta Beta Jofiel Black Wheels. They are 8 x 18. I am running 245/40ZR18s on them all around so I can rotate them front to back. Like I said, it was ~$2300 for them with tires, installed. They took the TPMs off of my old wheels and moved them over and also put stems in my old tires and aired them up too. The service was outstanding, rare here in Germany where they are more business-like and less out going for the customer.
