at this stage still saving up a bit more cash., probably will do something with it.Im not entirely happy with the current wheels i got on, even though i bought them second hand. mite go for somthing fpv style in 18 or 19 inch.i rekon the rims i got on now make it look older and im after a more modern look.

i traded the white 20s in for 400 bucks.thats wat i originally paid for them 2 yrs ago without tyres so i didnt lose too much on them because i bought the tyres for them cheap. i might change colour of the 18s or leave them on for a bit .they dont look too bad.

plasti-dip them in black, then if you dont like it just peel it off.

whats the thinking behind the bright blue centre console? seems a bit out there for a white car?

looks like a very neat and tidy solution. i may consider doing this application.i have the bottom section of my front bar painted black atm so it would suit also.

You will have to sand the 'XR6' logo they mold into it though. Hopefully they fit better than everything else that comes from that shop.

Will be good to see a nice rear bar for this too, just gotta find one that suits the rest of the kit.

I would go for black wheels with the white car, white wheels might be too much.
