I love the arrow on the sign pointing at your car because you are the "upper levels"! Looks great.

Thumbs up
Looks great

What size are the FM10s? Looks to be a more aggressive fitment that the 'standard' Fikse spec. Also, tire sizes? Thanks

Car is gorgeous. Nothing like a stock bodied FD with some nice wheels. Every time I even consider some body mods for my FD, a picture like that reminds me to not touch a thing.

You can't actually see the wheels much in pictures or even in person, if they are black. And white is almost as showy as polished metal. My suggestion would be to look at gray-range colors and 5-6 big fat spokes.

Thanks for the suggestion...

Yes, they are in leather. I do not like cloth seats so I asked the guys from www.transformersauto.com to change them and also add the orange stitching with the Efini emblem and Efini on the top of the headrest to match the carpets. Came out really nice.
