Default Arctic White Hotness... new wheels and other mods.

Decided to give the Nurburgrings a try, so far I really like them. I pulled my springs and Bilstein Sports and installed some LG GT2 coilovers, and WOW what a difference! I wish I had done them years ago. Did some lighting upgrades too, got some HALO LED tails from JW, along with the diamond cut rear side markers, and the diamond reverse lights. I also replaced all of the bulbs with LED's. I pulled all of my coolant and heater hoses off and wrapped them in this black flexbraid material to match my fuel lines. I'll take better pics of that later. Anyways, onto the pictures...

The wheels are great - good choice for your car.

Arctic White sucks, the wheels are too small and you need MUCH more plastic to cover the engine up...coilovers are only for race tracks.....

Very tastefully done!! I'm not a fan of white cars in any brand but you've made it look good.

In that first pic though I thought you had some big arsed weird spoiler on the back!!
