Finally the rims are on........

I know alot of you don't like the hood, that's cool by me. I wanted something different. Anywho, I finally got my Torque Thrust II's, and I'm in love. I just went to a car show, and turned alot of heads! I'm happy w/ the setup. Let me know what you guys think of the car, and the hood decal!!!! Enjoy

Those look awesome on your car, but it looks a little high now. Any plans to lower it?

Maximus those rims just plain fit your ride! Very sharp! Where did you get them? The last time I did a search for those I found they cost over 300 a piece? Where are the specials deals at? I know everyone says a lot of 3rd gens have them, but I havent seen them driving my local streets and they look bad bad a$$ on our cars! I want some!!

NICE!!!! But I have a question, are you going to do the white face gauges to go with your moster tach inside? It would look more uniform then.
And I agree with Metalli, the front looks a little too high. Drop just a little and it'd be the ultimate.

Thanx everyone, I'm really happy w/ how the car came out! Yes I want to lower the car an inch, but when I hit a "swell " in the road, my rear passanger quarter rubs the wheel. I think it may be the spare tire in the rear compartment weighing it down? Anyway I'm going to remove that to see if that helps, and if it does I'll lower the car 1in. As for the gauges, yes I plan to order the "Silver" gauges to match my tach along w/ the triple pillar that I've had for over a year but just haven't gotten around to putting them in!

Cool. When you get those gauges installed, take a pic so we can see. The rear height looks okay, maybe just lower the front?
