are those 01 tails? if not, it would set it off right with 01 tails.
what are the offsets on the wheels? are the by 8.5 all around?
hey D2, also, some clear corner lights and some Autocouture eyelidz would look tight
( and it would only set you back about 150 bucks )
hehe....lots of questions......you mentioned it being in the show circuit, are there future plans for more mods, i.e. lip kit, ice, performance mods, etc....?)

- The color is certainly a looker, really gives the car a more upscale appearance.
- 01 head and tailights coming soon (trying to force the bum-pers / rockers on him too!)
- yup 8.5 all around, and you know the offsets are closely guarded info (gotta save something for our customers!! lol)
- eyelids and clears are certainly in the works, but thanks for confirming our plans.
- future plans: 01+ aero, exhaust (picked up today), ICE is already installed (monitors / DVD).

Stef & D,

LOL C'mon bro, D2 always shows you love on your threads, play nice mang!! LOL
The point of this vehicle is a everyday car with parts that can be attained on almost any budget. We have already demonstrated our ability to mount 8,000 dollar 22" wheels on a Bentley so the object of this excercise was to stick to a moderate budget and still maintain our standards for fitment, quality and aesthetic balance (no 20" spinners over here).
Of course we could put some 4500 dollar wheels on and so on and so on, but how many 1997-2001 ES owners do that? So we wanted to ensure we had the right sermon for the right church!

anyways its an ok looking car. the fitment is good.(better than most that ive seen). Good job getting 8.5's to fit. it would have been nice to have put a body kit on it, especially sitting next to a kitted bmw.
but its a great place to start.
