My bs with a "facelift"
Hi!

Was actually planning to go with black wheels. But since there are so many other blacks with black wheels I chose go with something different.

I think the wheels and rear-end look nasty, but not so sure about the orange star in front?!

Next week we are installing longtube headers + eurocharged tune. Looking forward to it!!!

Damn Stian that was quick to go from stock to mod. Are those wheels powder coated bronze? Long tube would make it sound awesome.

really like the bronze rims but not feeling the bronzed star or badge... star should go back to chrome but the rear pieces would probably look really good in red IMO

Heading to NY next weekend for a week, then to KL for 2 weeks. I will be back for the August C&C. I should still have the BS at that time.

Don't mind the wheels too much actually but I would black out the star & badges to go with your fully blacked out theme instead of the copper.

I think blacking out the inside of the headlights would complete the look of the BS. Who is installing the headers for you in Houston before Jerry tunes it? I would love to find a good welding shop and getting it tuned by Jerry in one trip to Houston

Its bolt on headers. No welding required.
