there was a forum member that soldered some resistors to regular LED wedge bulbs for me. i can't remember his sign in name, but if you look in the FS section there are some vendors selling LED city lights.

I think it has a great stance, are those the factory wheels? Very agressive looking, spacers?

Yeah man - I say leave them alone as well - I didn't give my input at first because I started to over-think it and then had to pull the on myself. I just think it's the lighting messing with your head on the front. The stance is perfect when not rolling and rear looks NASTY with those offsets in the rolling pics. You got it right the first time - I say it's the lightning thats making it look to you like a gap is there.
