Wheels look good, what kind of tires are you running?

Do you have something special in the rear? Maybe a drop? It looks very tucked up (very nice).

I have always liked Radenergie wheels, especially the R10's and the R5's. I wish the R20's were forged because they would have been slapped on my 65.

Everything looks clean, just IMO remove the orange side markers please

Car looks hot and love everything, but think the roof spoiler looks a bit should I say Getto.

Hope you enjoy it and the tints look just fine, looks with out dark windows which I will have replaced on mine soon since they are way to dark.

Awesome! So similar to the silver car ling posted as far asd mods go. I love the diamond cut finish, something about a bright silver wheel always looks real nice and classy. Very nice job.

Looks great, love the diamond finish. Makes the car look clean. Any chance of removing the tint? It would make it look so much cleaner with just the blue glass.
