So I went to my shop to drop off a quarter panel and I got to see my teammates car before he did
It's not 100% done yet but I was very impressed. To be able to tuck 11" wide double digit negative offset wheels on a GS without excessive camber is no easy task. I can't wait to see this thing on the road soon

I told the body shop to do that for me when I got my car painted... they gave me the run around

This is why we travel 430 miles for body work. Its because they will not only do the job with out asking questions, they will do it the right way without cutting corners. You just need to keep looking for a shop in your area.
And no, there is no wing on there. Its just a shadow. My friend took pics with a real camera. Hopefully he posts them soon

these rims looks exactly like VIP Modular VR1's. At first i thought you got VIP Modular, but now you told me it's Kartier Forged. Looks exactly the same, but cheaper too.

Yeah you have to put them side by side to tell the difference , I was kinda stuck between making the choice between the two I like the Kartier because the face is a bit fuller and George the owner was a real great guy to deal with. Price was pretty close and both companies were willing to match better price for me In the end it came down to how many people had the wheel already , so far one other car I seen was the chrysler 300 from Platinum but he recently changed them . But I am very happy with Kartier everytime I called I spoke directly to George the owner
