Looking great Also a VAG owner and there's definitely a build quality difference between the two.

i think black wheels are too played out

every wanna-be debadged sub-30k car has them which makes our w204s look a little cheaper to me when they mimic that look... just my own opinion, not trying to hurt any feelings

^^^ your opinion is yours however I feel the opposite. Every $10k - $100k car comes with silver wheels and is beyond played out. A car with silver wheels whether it be oem or aftermarket still looks stock to me. I dislike stock looking cars which is why I modify my cars. In my case even more, silver wheels look ridiculous on a red car...... Even hot pink wheels would look better then silver.

Love everything about the car. Personally I love the black rims. They truly complete the effect you are having on your car. To the guy who said it makes our cars look cheap. Last time I checked they give owners the option to have black rims on the zr-1, cts-v, and some new lambo's. All none sub 30k cars.

put in some LED H7 Bulbs in the fog lights today........











Matches the eyelid LED's perfectly........

Also finally installed the Invision DVD headrests and Mid City Engineering VIM module. Ran a iPod A/V cable into the centre console to play the movies off of (connected to the A/V input on command head unit) then out put from the head unit to the headrests. The headrests also have USB and RCA inputs as well as DVD players in both units....... the kids will now finally drive in my car instead of just the Sienna haha.









I also put weather tech mats in the front, back and cargo area...... a MUST have for anyone with dirty kids or dirty weather. They fit perfect!
