Not a fan of black rims but I must say, those blacked out Mono II's really suit the red! I like it! Nice car Tony, how long have you had it? What do you have in store for it?

Thanks alot! I have owned it for only a few months. I really enjoy the car. The Imperial red turns a few heads, but the real fun is on the interstate
My plans are minimal right now, I would like some better shocks and larger sway bars, but other than that... maybe new wheels with a nice polished lip. I welcome you thoughts and opinions. Thanks.

I polished the lip on my Monoblocks by sanding down to the bare aluminum. I cycled each wheel while the rear of the car was jacked up on one side then I just put her into drive and let the wheel rotate while i held the sandpaper against the lips. It worked great, however, the neighbors will give you concerned looks.

I was able to polish them to a mirror sheen and it gave that extra bling while still being absolutley classy...turned lots of heads on the interstate. Swaybars are a great start to improve cornering, for shocks I'd go with Bilstien HD's over sports, many Porsche owners that track thier cars are partial to HD's over sport valved Bilstiens. Then if you want to go overboard you can get a shock mount tower brace (if they make them for W202), the looks will far outweigh the cornering gains but its still a gain. The RED RULES!
