OK. Please be honest. I already know from other threads on this board, that some of you are going to hate the look I'm going for here. That's cool with me. I'm truly interested in honest opinions. Some of you might like it too. Just to let you know, I have a few more cosmetic mods in progress. A replica ACS roof spoiler and a replica ACS trunk spoiler. An ACS exhaust tip powdercoated the same sapphire black metallic as the wheels. The wheels are 20x9 fronts and 20x10 rear radial style 32 replicas. I had them powdercoated sapphire black metallic. The tires are 255-30-20 in the fronts and 295-25-20 in the rear. I also have the black grilles to put in as well. The mods are all cosmetic. This is my everyday go to work car. Oh yeah, the tint is 5% on the rear and 20% on the sides.

Those rear wheels are HUGE

I'm a bit of a traditionalist, so the black wheels aren't for me, but I'd be interested in seeing how this ends up. Keep us posted.
