Default New parts...springs, GOLD wheels, tires, lights *Picture of wheels mounted added*

A lot has happened to my car in the past couple weeks. Last week I lowered my car myself with these....

They are the sport springs by the way. It was a pretty smooth install. I researched before I tried anything and none of the rear lower control arm bolts broke. I also used to have some 17's so those had to go. I wanted to get something that a lot of people didn't get. My tires came first....Dunlop Direzza from tire rack in 205-50-15. Pretty cheap plus they came with a $50 rebate.

I wanted gold wheels and I was holding out for some rota attacks but no one had them in gold. I was waiting 3 weeks for them and then finally jlbmotorsports raised the price on me to $450 shipped and I would still have to wait so I just got some slipstreams in gold for $430. I just got them today.

They look really good in person. The picture just doesn't really show how good they look. And finally here is the car that the wheels are going on.

Yup, the car is silver. There's not many people rolling around with gold wheels on a silver car. I don't think I've ever seen anyone with gold slips on a silver car before. Well that's all. Thanks for looking.

*Picture of wheels mounted on car*
I got the tires mounted on the wheels this morning. Here's just a couple pics in my driveway. Don't mind the gap between my bumper and fender and between the grille and hood. The bumper is only held up by 2 clips because I'm installing fog lights today. If you look carefully you can see I already cut the grille on the bumper on the driver side. Hopefully real pics (not in my driveway) will be added tomorow.
