Talking Finally got my Volk LE37s

Well, I finally got the wheels for the car. I got a good deal on them but was still pretty steep. I could'nt skimp especially because they are an anniversary present to my wife. This is actually her car. I asked her if she wanted clothes or jewlery but she said she would rather get the wheels. It is back in the paint shop though. The yellow in this pic attached started to react with the white base and as it continued to dry, white started to show through the yellow. So now all the yellow will be sprayed a prototype silver that is supposed to be "the closest look to actual chrome in paint material". It gets resprayed tomorrow so we'll see how true that is. The car is schedualed to be a featured car for Intrax Suspension at SEMA in Las Vegas. So, if any manufacturers would like to display any new products for FD's at the show, let me know. I'll post some new pics as the car progresses.

C-west Rx-7;

Do you have the carbonfiber GT-wing also, and where did you get it from. I have the full c-west bodykits also but my wing hasn't arrive yet. You know that the C-west kits comes with those lines around the F&R bumper and the sideskirts did you sand them down cause they looks much smoother. This was the only problem I have with it otherwise the quality of fitment is good. How was your fitment. So is your car going to look like the first pic or the second pic.

I'm in the Rancho Bernardo just south of Escondido off the 15 fwy, but I think it would be worth the drive to see that car when it's finally done

Cool! Let us know how looks - better yet pictures! Do you have more info on the paint? Ever since I saw the various Audi concept cars in polish/chrome, I've been really curious about such a finish.
