He wanted the FB aluminum wheels not the SE wheels. I haven't seen anyone do it. I think that would be rather interesting

Looks a little photo chopped but not bad, but these might just be polished.

If I remember right the guy made those himself a while back. He did his own lazy eye kit and used two Hella bulbs on each side. I don't remember anything besides that.

You know, I have a local guy here that can chrome wheels for $450 a set. Now that I have seen a set, I am pretty impressed. Not a bad way to go. I would have three sets of wheels for my GSL. 17s, 14s, and some burn off tires, 13s!!!!





HAHAHAHAHHA!!!!!!!!!!
