Thanks bro, coming from you and I've seen your car I appreciate it.


Thanks for the compliments from the rest of you guys. Vossen wheels are solid pieces, I would recommend them.

Looks so much better than the maroon one that was featured a few weeks back with these wheels, IMO. They go better with a silver car.

Which roof spoiler is that?

The reasons they look better on Erics car:

Silver wheels match silver car
Eric's fenders are wider, they've been rolled or pulled so that they can cover the wide fitment of Vossens.
The kit also add coverage for the wide Vossens.

Eric, I think it's unanimous, the Vossens are the best look you've had so far. I think it just the newness of the design but whatever it is, the car is hot.

eric, the fenders are pulled? front or rear? and how much did you pull? i am curious coz' front front and rear fenders from factory have that vertical part. in order to pull it out well it will take some work. i can see from pics that the front fenders seem to be rolled (can see some wavy part), but i am interesting in knowing about the pull

I'm not sure they are pulled, rolled for sure but in person they look pulled sitting over those wide wheels.

The pulling was accidental, it happened as I was rolling or trying to anyways. That pesky tab holding the liner in place was hitting the fender which forced the pull. This was the first side I did, the other side you don't see it. I'll eventually fix the dent but not till my next wheels come around.

Come on Reggie, let's not over react. You would have never noticed like many others till I pointed it out. Bugs me but not enough to make a big deal out of.

I'm not too crazy about the JDM fogs. The LEDs are a little out of place IMO, I like the stock ones with yellow bulbs.

really? well different strokes for different folks i guess. but reading your comment from post #10 in link below, i assumed you'd go with jdm fogs if you didn't have hid fogs already (and hence my above comment).
