    LOL! You should see what I have in my basement right now... a brand new never mounted set of 17X9/17X10.5 AFS cobra R replicas that too are powdercoated white. My cousin bought them for his old Mach1 and then sold it and never did anything with them. I may buy them and use them for autocrossing, but I won't leave them white, I'll probably powdercoat them black or something.


    If you told me you had white wheels on a black car I would have thought that it wouldn't look good, but your car pulls it off!

    the stock grill is plastic = no powder coating on that

    I think with the white stripe it balances it out. ;)

    well id like to do some exhaust work and gears and a tuner and


    I NEED CASH FOR ALL OF THOSE lol

    kinda hard to do when your a full time student and a full time employee making just enough to cover your ass on the car. lol but really id like to get a cobra front bumper and a gt back and then i would also like to get some sort of f/i but like i said strapped for cash

    those wheels is where my stimulus went :P

    im always looking for more stuff to do to my car

    *edit* and its ironic you said the stripe makes it work because before the wheels everybody said the stripe made the car look terrible. idk why the vinyl gets such bad rep.
