Oh well, I guess the color match keeps them semi-original.

LOL...I promise to get some better pics as soon as possible. Unfortunately, it's not gonna be this weekend, cuz I'm not gonna be in town.
Thanks for all the compliments, though. I definitely didn't think they'd turn out this good, so I really, really appreciate it. And definitely gives me the comfort that it was money well spent.

DREX, those wheels look like crap! color matching is only for rappers and professional athletes. looks like your going the CRIBS route w/ your car. you might as well get spinners!
congratulations, now your gonna have to drive really slow and avoid any and all road imperfections; way to think things through bucko. 19's are a whole different story than your old 18's. and you better get some wheel locks cuz you live in a bad neighborhood. in fact i'm coming over this weekend while your out of town to jack your rims and turn them into end tables... and i gotta pick up my old H&R's/KYB's out of the garage so don't park too close to the TEIN box please.

Nah, my cuz's car is a pretty out of hand looking Galant. One of the nicest looking Galants around (if not "the" nicest in L.A.). I'll probably have collective pics of all our cars (EVO, Galant and My car) pretty soon. Just waiting for Reelax's car to get completely finished and out of the shop.
