Gee!!!

THOSE ARE THE RIMS I WANT!!! Stop getting my rims ppl! lol
That Acura cap finishes it off almost perfectly. Just not to into the random redness.

What rims are they? and where did you get the caps?

looks good, i like the blackout theme, except with the headlights that dark, the brake lights and the corners need to be darker IMO.

but the rims look good, get rid of the red and they'll be 10x better
oh and...

nice rims! looks like klepto's old/my rims now...safe bet that they would be the G-Racing Seki's. and yes definitely post some pics after your done painting the center caps, the red throws it off since you don't have any other red anywhere. and i'm with some of the others, the tint on the headlights don't do it for me, imo. but good lookin CL bro.

Not a huge fan of the holes in the front bumper, seem to have a gravitational pull for my vision whenever I look at the car. Other than that, looks good -- even though blacked out headlights are not my thing. I rather see at night, something that is not a major issue for you living in a city that is always lit.

How the hell do u not get pulled over in NYC with those dark ass headlights lol. Cops give me dirty looks all the time w/my yellow ones, until they see that i've passed inspection recently. Looks iight though, you need to drop that shit asap though bro.

What do you need new rims for? It looks like your car's about to launch out into the deep blue yonder from here.

Get a suspension drop pronto Car looks nice overall tho

at least get S-techs for a drop.

not into the whole "blackout" theme, but it looks clean enough.

People like them, and whenever people come on this site it's one of the most recommended. I don't have one, but I don't think "too many people have it" is a good argument against them though
