love ur attention to details Matt! Nice way to look classy yet sporty.
Btw, the rear wheels looks flush.. Why don't u go wider tires to close the gap & maximize traction?

Thanks Magas. Next pics will be on the new black multispokes with a polished lip as I haven't tried them on yet.
Thanks Darren. There is only one trusted source for LED W5W bulbs - AZNOptics.
Their products are awesome - durable and have no issues in our cars.
Write them an email and ask for 5000k LEDs for your eyelids and trunk. Should be 6 bulbs in total but take 2 spare ones just in case.

Because I didn't buy step lip wheels to hide the lips under the fenders
Meatier tires will make the wheels look even smaller.

I want that front grille. I'm sure it's OEM but just done right.

You can take the chrome pieces apart and wrap it yourself or just take it to a wrap-shop in your area.
It's better than paint because you get no rock chips.

Sick picture Matt!
Rick, I wanted the same cap but I knew it would not fit OEM lock nuts.. So I gave up on the idea!

Lol they will fit the oem bolts not the locking bolts. Trust me, either u roll w/o the locking bolts or either u give up the red caps.. 4 per wheels will look weird. Lol

^^ I doubt it will be durable enough. The friction from the locking keys will make the paint cheap in no time.

Your right,
You can powder coat them, but they will most likely chip. Especially if you are using any type of powered impact tool to install the bolts. I asked my powder coater and he recommended against it.
You maybe lucky if you do it by hand, but I wont risk it.
A suggestion - I am in the process of installing a stud conversion on my car. This way you can choose what ever open ended lug nuts you want. I went with black but they have dozens of color options, even forged aluminium options which actually saves a bit of weight per corner.
Once I install them, will get some pics up!
