i would ditch the headlights. Looks too APC/Pepboys to me. Use the money to buy that kid some food or something. But those wheels look good on your car. Now drop it like its hot.

My rule of thumb for wheels is.........if it don't rub it don't fit

Clean car for sure! I like everything except for the headlights and painted calipers/rotors.
