Nice looking car and of course I am a fan of the Aero Kit (MKI).

Wheels are nice and to be honest, cleaning mesh is not a problem...use a swiffer, perfect for getting in between the spokes and yes the brake dust sticks to the swiffer. So don't decide against mesh just because you don't want to clean them, but if you do then the rest of us with those wheels will stand out more than you.

If your car is lowered, my guess it has the M030 (RoW not sure about though), but you did say a factory suspension, and I know it is not an x74.

Nice mufflers.

So after all that welcome to the 6

Are those "clear" markers or "smoked"? Where could one pick some up like that?
Thanks!
