You should wrap the trunk chrome in silver instead of the black. Having the carbon fiber spoiler and the black strip on the trunk looks funny.

Yes, but if you drop it; you need new wheels. I don't like that "tucked" look when you do a suspension.

Hey mate,

What does a set of these wheels cost ?

I have been looking at a set of Klassen m52r's, they are like $6250 USD.

Amazed you have got a 305mm on the back! Fitment is perfect.

how does the car ride on a 20? are you running coilovers?

I think the question is more: what was the before/after dyno?
We all know these cars are under rated from factory and a simple tune gains you a lot. This number is GTS territory.
Also in your 2nd posts your car original color is darker. More like a selenite mango grey. I do prefer that color instead of the wrap you did. Nonetheless good job on the wheels. By the way are you working for nutek? That is your 3rd set right? You kept or traded the other 2?
My guess is your offsets are front ET 25 and rear ET 54. And you need a drop man probably with 295 in the back!lol!

I have seen several dyno runs between high 460's and high 470's WHP stock.
So going from about 475 to 620 is 145 and not to high for a stage 2 tune and downpipes.
