and then there is the SEVENTH in Seven!

I don't remember the first time I saw them, but I sure won't just see them drive by. long awaited dream came true and it took Rareamg/Fred to in convince me.

the unique REs will be missed (REs are for sale lol) but can't be happier with the decision to join the LM crowd.

and it's the first time I've ever wash the car knowing it will probably rain the next day. :rofl:

I do need to re-learn how to drive on 19" tho. already took a chunk out of the front tire when making a turn through dips.

quick pics after wash.

That looks soooooooooo much better Frank. Beautiful selection. Nice touch with the red caps. How would they look with the carbon fiber caps?
