The is the exact opposite of my original intentions, but I liked the look and wanted to run the Fikses more than the stockers... and until I hit the lottery, I will be spending more time on the street

Roll bar/Seats/harnesses go in soon -- meeting with fabricator today.

Thanks for all of your opinions -- even those that think it looks crappy

I know how you feel. The "keep it stock-a-philes" dont understand. I had Techart Formula's on my TT in silver and when I put some powdercoated black stockers on it, even my wife said they looked much better.

Though I would much rather have the black on the track, those GT3 wheels will stay valuable and the black more suited to the track, but I just decided to run the black ALL the time, street and track, but I do understand why you picked that route.

Car looks great.

They would look best in 19s, but they are still really sweet.

The new wheels look mean especially the rears but imo the fronts look like they have a lil too much tire. Awesome color btw.

IMO, this is getting played out.

If anything, doing the lips in a polished finish. I personally love the all business look of the all black though. The car looks like it just rolled off a circuit.
