The only thing I don't like is that the color makes them look dusty. Unless they are dusty?

Other than that, looks great!!

Looks good!I'd ditch the orange sidemarkers, (i'd tint personally) and get rid of the chicklets and then you'll be a lot better :wink:

That's nice, but you can go shove it Jason. :)

Seriously though, yes I plan on 30% tint all around since its legal now in Illinois (or dark as I want, but only rears). I'm not messing with the side markers until I tackle my GXP front bumper conversion, but the orange isn't something I get all hot and bothered about.

I was going for a slightly "euro" look because the interior is 2-tone red/black.

And Ed, they are Matte Gray so they are supposed to look that way.

What, cuz I agreed with everything you said? I meant tint the sidemarkers! Or just buy some smoked ones like I did... Screw VHT nightshades if I don't have to :wink:

By the way, Offsets look perfect IMO.

I am not completely sold on it but it is slowly growing on me.

And no tire shine, wtf?

Def growing on me each time I open the thread. The car does have the Euro styling from the factory so the rims go along with that.

And Kyle....replace the C with a K in Hankook from the OP :wink:

Hah Jake yeah I did a typo.

I put tire shine on but no pics yet. I hate taking pics with my phone because it doesn't do it any justice.

Correct sir.
it would be cheaper(or close) to get a 17" winter tire/rim package from say, Tire rack then to get 19" winter rubber and risk F'ing up the nice 19's....

I already had a set of 19" Blizzacks on the oem rims last year, so yeah they got beat up more than your bumper.
