Nice! Although I would prefer the black part of the wheels to be the car's body color instead of the matte black powder coat or whatever they call it. But your car is rocking!!

Nice upgrades list! Your car will almost be exactly like mine with the exception of the wheels and the Eisenmann exhaust.

Where are you located?

Looks great! How's the performance and the noise level from the Falken tires? Have considered the falkens but I'm worried that the tire noise could be a problem.

So far everything is great...no noise from the tires that i have noticed.....and im not sure if its the tire or the fact that the rear's are 275's but ive pushed em pretty hard already and they definitly perform great, ive yet to break them loose...
