I like the front calibers but not the rear. Change them all to the front style, it looks so much better.

+rep for good looking.

looks excellent, it looks like mine but i have the 18's on there and mines silver, once you get those 18's then it will look awesome, i think 2.4 look better than the 2.0 do with the 18's, they stand out more i guess. keep it up and the decals look sweet too

well yours is black so either looks good, i like gun metal ones the best and make sure you get 05-06 18's wheels, but they are hard to find so i guess whatever you find is good. mine isn't lowered is those pics but i can get some up for you if you want
