Sneak Peak new wheels :D

Just worked out sponsorship with DPE and picked up their new SP line wheel. Should be delivered end of the month, but wanted to give you all a sneak peek. Satin black/chrome lips. Here are the renderings and info:







Also, getting interior re-upholstered end of the month as well. Diamond white inserts with white double stitching on seat center and doors. Wanted to bring some of the outside color inside and was always a sucker for two tone.

last set was an experiment in style as I wanted something less standard than your typical 5-6-7 spoke or mesh. Now going for a more traditional cleaner look. Slimmer spokes doesn't hide the calipers and rivetless gives it a classier styling vs aggressive.

19s. 8.5f 9.5r. Toyed with the idea of 20s slammed, but didn't want to sacrifice too much ride quality as it's still a DD.

Although not exactly, it'll be similar to this GLK


This project won't start till after I return from my honeymoon so I still have time to reconsider color scheme, but already scheduled the date with the upholstery shop. Should only take a couple days. It was either white, or just go conservative and do black diamonds.

Is the first picture fabric or leather? It looks damn good. Go white! I was going go go two tone designio on my C but it was pretty much white on black, which I thought would get dirty far too easily...

How much is the interior setting you back?
