Tough choice. Mesh style wheels in black/black chrome with a polished lip or gold with a polished lip. gold is hard to pull off.

Fresh from the shop after the lady smacked my front fender/bumper. Shop really did a **** poor job, and I ended up taking apart the front end and adjusting it myself. Fairly happy with the results. I also decided to put on the new wheels! 17x10 all the way around, 35mm front, 25mm rear 235/40/17 front and 255/40/17 in the rear. Very happy, with the updated looks. Thanks again Joe!

Thanks ZePower and Mason. I love the fitment, now to get the car lowered on H+Rs for the time being until I can afford to swing some trakpros. I bought mine from NoPis10 (Joe), I drove 4 hours there and 4 back to get them, he did cut me a pretty sweet deal on them.

You can still easily find those if you look around, they're very cheap too.

I suppose I'm not looking hard enough then, (given, I'm not in the market yet). Seems when I do, they're always the wrong size, color, and/or overpriced etc. though.

Wanna shot me a PM if you happen to see some for sale?

I do have a set of FN01R-C here, but they are only 17x7 and 17x8 +35 and they are not the concaved version I want for the FD, so they are going on my daily

^the paint matches perfectly, it was all painted together. I think in the photos you're seeing the difference between the aluminum hood and fenders vs the polyurethane bumper.
