Looks sharp! Why do you want chrome rims? Your rims look great! What kind are they? And how did you paint your grille? Yourself or a shop?

Look realllllyy nice man....

I thought HRE's would cost that much if you custom ordered them from HRE. A friend of mine was selling his set with tires for about 1/3 that price (used of course)

while i agree that jrsalesco got overcharged for the hre's, you guys def arent making him feel any better and thats a pretty ****ty welcome to the boards.

jrsalesco, while it sucks that you got jerked, ultimately you were able to afford them at that price and if youre happy with them, then *** it, move on and just learn from this. you can use this board as a great resource before you buy or do anything to your car in the future. irregardless, your car looks sick!
