Thanks for the compliments...

The lip is from ShineAuto, they have a ebay store... they make a good range of FC and FD exterior parts... the lip is a mixture of resin and fiberglass so it will flex a good deal and not break that easily...

I'm still wondering if I should powdercoat my wheels gold/bronze, or recoat them black. Car's going to be painted white, so it's a hard decision.

Thanks for the compliments. A little bit of confusion perhaps. The lip on my car is not sold by ShineAuto. It is a Mazdaspeed lip and Corksport carries a replica of it.

Thanks. They are Rikens.
They were black before with faded, brake dusted lips.
I polished the hell out of them.. as you can see *maybe
it is sitting on on tein ra with 205 55 (16x7 +20) dunlop tires. I can maybe use 225. Sometimes I like the stretched look, but I don't have anything to stretch..

Join the fun?

These are the stock GXL wheels that were on the N/A until 3 weeks ago (backwards and everything):



These are the replacement "vert" BBS's:



I sold these wheels several months ago to another member who has since refinished them and made them look AMAZING.



I put these "new" wheels on 3 weeks ago. They're Enkei Evolution RS's. I'm not a huge fan of their look (I don't really like the gold on these particular wheels), but I got them for an amazing price and they're really light... I probably won't have them on this Turbo II for very long though.
