I would've left it on if the site had kept ZeroForum, but with the buyout of it with IB; and its conversion to Vbulletin that place has lost its originality and has become another bandwagon forum and gone downhill. I have some C/L decals to take its place soon

To my taste; others rims with extra offset. (Why blue?), some paint retouching and a good clean-up, ha ha (here in PR is 80 degrees on the coast and 60 in the mountains)
255.40.19 rear/245.35.19 front.. too much potholes, so installed higher tires.
I'd need to lower a little but... $$$$
(by the way, I replaced the Audi decals)

I would strip and refinish them, they look good on the GS.

I was outside working for 14 hours today in 15 degree weather

Car looks nice, I would spend the money to get the paint work touched up though... How do you like the Direzza DZ101s
