Platano's New Shoes
Here's a few pics my battery was dying on my camera. I will take more over the weekend. Let me know what you think. I really wanted the Racing Harts like Nippon has but they are on super backorder and I got sick of waiting. These were my last choice in wheels.

I'm not used to it yet either but atleast I dont have to scrub and scrub anymore like I did with the chrome. I'm turning more heads with the black. Alot of people like them it so far around my way.

yo that looks great.
i have nothing bad to say about the look.
great drop, great up-keep of the paint job.
i think if you have the smoked bumper lenses like i do, it'd flow lovely.
amber looks good, but with the black wheels i think if you got clear corners and
a bottle of the spray tint, you'd be looking even better.
all in all - WOW
looks great! (17s or 18s?)

hey what do you think about tinting the clear corners?
that'd be a cool look i think.
