nice car. but yeah, not liking the flaps. do they really stop that much dirt? ideally, for them to work properly, they need to be as low as possible to the ground.

Love the new wheels! Don't worry about the comments about the flaps, they are fine as they are IMO.

Thanks for the link for the bulbs, just ordered a set for myself.
