What wheels? I know what you mean that it's almost a shame to do all this stuff to a 20k mi mint car!
...I said 'ALMOST'!
I personally don't care about the 63 look and diffuser but the spoiler looks soooo much better! JUST MAKE IT FASTER!
Good luck with it whatever you choose to do!

He is having custom wheels made for the cream puff, and I had them come measure the specs off my car this past weekend.

I ordered the stage 2 "race prep" Which is a wheel lightning process they offer. From Brada: Race Prep Lightening, a feature we offer in two stages that can save 1-1.5 lbs stage 1 or 2.5-3 lbs per wheel for stage 2. So, 19's will weigh between 20-22 pounds with stage 2, and 23-25 ish without any lightening (depending on the backpad/width).

I did feel bad about modding this beast but I can't help it.. I literally have a pile of parts in my office to transform the exterior over the next week or so. Then I'm going to get Craig at Buckhead to send me all the goods for the motor. Should be done by April.Not many low mileage 55's around! You and I have the responsibility of keeping them clean so there are nice examples left in another 20-30 years.

Got some goodies from Buckhead today! Thanks Craig
Lowering module went in last night! Never done one before and it took about 3 hours with help from a friend. Just need to find a good place to hide the cable and remote now.
Just some iphone pics for now... Once I get all the new exterior parts painted and installed with the Brada wheels mounted i'll get the SLR out
