It looks to me you have meatier tires or your setting is really more aggressive. I like it.

Thx Anthony, they look meatier but must be the illusion created by the red wheels as this set is the exact copy of my HRE P40SC.

I got my CF mirrors from Matt in Poland, the red vinyl I added myself. Quality is top notch.

Thx guys for the feedbacks!

Rob, Thx for the kind words & support throughout my decision process, I was afraid not to like it at first & almost changed my order but at the end, it turned out in a good way I can say.

Anytime Meng! And I'm being honest when I say this, I absolutely love your car! So original and Im so glad you didn't change the order. I'm not a fan of loud stuff, but you really pulled it off. Too bad we werent on the same continent and could get some pics together hehe. You must be smiling ear to ear

Beautiful Meng. I think your car was made for red wheels. Great choice.

The red trim on your mirrors is a perfect compliment to the wheels. Well done!

Looks sensational with your other more subtle mods. My "satin" black wheels are looking very flat and tatty (do not ever get Forgestar satin black - you must get gloss) and you have me thinking about perhaps stepping out with my colour choice for refinishing them.

Haha yup, we totally would be. And I wouldn't say that, I think our cars would look sick next to each other.

On a side note, did u ever think about wrapping or dipping the chrome casing around your fog lights? I think it might look good for a cheap DIY.

Also I'm a big fan of your red mirrors and your car just matches so well!

I had a set of P44SC in satin black but sold it cuz I couldht stand the dust & dirt. They always looked dirty.

If I were u I would refinish them, but honestly powdercoat red doesn't have the same depth as brushed tinted red. It's hard to explain & capture on camera, but in person the finish has a 3D effect which is spectacular. It also changes shade depending on the lighting.

That being said, I would powdercoat ur Forgestar gunmetal if u can't find a shop to brush them.

It's funny u are mentioning about my chrome bits cuz my friend photographer also think the red wheels needs black trims & black emblems to clean up the look. Will see this summer if I can find a shop to wrap them w/o too much headaches, I wouldn't want it permanent though.

Hey Rob, I almost decided to wrap my fogs but decided to do my windows trims only in gloss black. They matches the roof trims perfectly.

I found the black fogs or black trunk bar would stand out too much on a white car, so I've decided not to touch them.
