Turinis
Superleggeras

tried a set of black wheels on it and it looked shi*e too much black, looked really odd i thought?

defo the wheels and the rear lights...the boot looks a bit odd for some reason? has it been smoothed? just dosent look right...almost a different colour but then that could just be the light in the pics....

angel eyes and spoiler are fine but then I'm biased as I have the same on mine....

don't go for the whole black stelth look...looks silly...maybe your tints are just too dark as well? looks a bit like a van (sorry)

no rear wiper because it never worked so i took it off and stuck a bung in the hole, nothings been smoothed apart from the bonnet but i stuck the badge back on cos i dint like the way it looked (bonnet came smoothed) boot should be same colour, not been sprayed or anything, as for the rsi in the above link, i really am not a fan, but i guess its just what you like, only the 2 rear side windows are tinted and there done in a light tint,

the rear wings are not valver wings, hence pap appearance.

well thats what i thought at first but iv since seen others with valver wings and they seem to look better,

i like dont like the wheels white willy wheels or polished will look good

Have to say, I'm with Jonny on this one....I've gone right off all these random willy wheel contaptions...they just look like dodgy steel wheels to me unless they are the proper colour on the proper car....

haha! what wheels are you running?

IMO you need to change the front lights back to standard and put smoked side repeaters on it :) Everything else looks cool. Am liking the smoked rear lights and spoiler (prob cos I used to have the same spoiler on my old RT)
