i love the star in chrome, it matches the accents so nice! different strokes for different folks i guess, but i might add these pictures don't do any justice at all, you can't see the 3.5" lip on the wheels either, guess i better hone my camera skills lol

the brakes are quite visible with these particular asanti's, hre makes a set that is almost identical, check out wheelexperts.com, you will see the E55 feature car i am talking about, both look great

not yet, i'm gonna do the lowering thru star, it's absolutely perfect for the car, no need for a lowering module. it's the only thing i didn't do yet, my appointment to lower it is next week! for now at least i am not afraid to drive a little crazy b4 it's gets any closer to the ground

What I dream of my 55 looking like someday.

Hey, real quick.....the foggers yellowish bulbs on purpose?? Just wondering why you wouldn't go for the hat trick and make all 3 lights white.

Just curious.

What a car!!

Nice! I saw a Black Vanquish with the same Asantis over by Bal Harbour Shops, looked amazing!

Any power mods planned?

That ride looks hot.... for fogs I have the Piaa spark blue which is around 7800k in color. They seem to match up fairly well with the stock xenons. You might want to get rid of the orange side markers by getting some prepainted ones from Evosport or getting the Euro strips. Again, amazing ride!!

Yeah I hear ya, the star is a good choice for those that want a moderate lowering. I think when its lowered it will look even better, perhaps with a slight tint job to tie it all in.

Congrats once again.

What front end is that? Is it a whole body kit? Thanks!

Also, are those aftermarket bulbs for headlights or did you get the lighting package?
