Damn, I think those chrome rims look really nice on your car in case those were the ones you were referring to as cheesy

Very NICE!!

I would have gotten rid of the chrome wheels, too. I think your current wheels are much nicer.

What was wrong with the puddle lights?

I like the front lip, don't like either set of wheels (new ones are a good improvement, though), the car's too low, don't like the weatherguards on the side windows. Nice color - obsidian?

the puddle lights ripped off when i went over a speed bump . but i like riding my car at the lowest setting cause in hawaii being slammed is SWAG. alot of the people here seem to favor slammed cars rather than fast cars. and yes it is obsidan.

Given the hp on our cars, that's a good thing.

Your car is a bit too low and your car could definitely use a refresh on the rims but I do like the angel eyes

coils or air? looks nice. i'm doing coils/air cups on work wheels. D3S's or A6S's would look nice in work black chrome.

Liking the front bumper, but for my taste its just too low and the headlights doesn't fit very well.

What are you using for your drop? I am about to purchase H&R springs. Also, did you just upgrade the front bumper or is that an entire kit? I've thought about installing puddle lights myself and hooking them up to the un/lock wiring harness so they turn on and off when the car is un/locked. Welcome!

Looks like just the bumper was upgraded to the AMG body style

i got d2 full coilovers and camber kit in the back. make sure you mount your lights right cause mild rain could make the grip weak on the puddle lights. i had 2 lights dangling on the freeway one time. i swear people thought my car was a sleight or something haha
