Very nice wheels! What brand are they? They kind of remind me of the Radenergie R-10's.

Default Wheels?

The wheels are hot! It's hard to tell without a full body shot of your car? This wheel would look really nice on a Black or dark colored GS!

The wheels and the car look absolutely stunning!!!

Very good choice in finish of the wheels - brushed/black chrome.

Awesome body kit on your car!! This is the exact same body kit (maybe even same car as it looks virtually identical other than the wheels) I saw in the recent issue of Modified Luxury and Exotics magazine advertising EXE wheels. Is this the same car?

What body kit is in your car? I just love it!

I would love to see more pics of your car - straight-on side, front and rear shots - close up and perspective shots like the one above.

Man, the car looks great . Black chrome is very cool and you won't see many like it. Perfect drop on the car as well.

Hammed,

Thanks for the comments !!! I'm glad you like the "reverse" color scheme that was used on my whip.

Yes it is the same car that is in the EXE wheel ad. The bodykit is from JP USA.

Check out their website

Thanks for link Yuji!

I can't believe how inexpensive the kit is though - < $1000 !

http://www.jpusaco.com/product_info.php?products_id=58

How is the quality and fitment of the kit? Did it conform very well to the bumpers and sides or did it require extensive modification?

Is it made in the US?

I think it would look better - especially in the back if it was molded into the bumper.

Is your hood just painted black or is it CF or Fiberglass?

Hammed,

From what my bodyshop said ... this kit fits very well. NO need for major alterations to get it to fit. As far as the quality goes ... its been on for a little over a year. I've "kissed" driveways, speed bumps, and the such with no real damage. (cracks or breaks) I do have a tiny spot of spider-webbing in the paint on one the sideskirts from going over a speed bump that I didnt see. Point of origin in unknown, to me. As far as the hood goes, that a piece I've had for about 4 years, and I just havent gotten around to painting it.

Thanks again for the comments

Yuji

JP is a Japanese Company, I bought an AeroMagic Lip for my Acura Legend Coupe and it took about 4 months to get here...
