it's up to you. IMO, the only nice set of white rims are Type-R rims on civics and integs.

my car is red and i couldnt picture white rims on it... just my opinion too

it sounds very nice... its not very noticable to be honest like on a civic or integra, but its there and it sounds brilliant... much better than stock, not obtrusive but clean and very nice...

another added bonus, but sometimes a drawback, is that it makes a sick wistling noise when im cruising, sounds like a turbo spool... numerous people have heard my car and asked if it was turboed... if i cruise than lightly tap the gas its crazy how loud the wistle is

i live in NY and i was messing with a old school supra one night on the way out of DPA... next time i went , i pulled in to a lot where he was and they were like oh **** theres the turboed g35... they did not believe me when i told them it wasnt, and thought i wouldnt pop my hood... they were shocked not to see it... i also blew his doors off and thats why he was sayin i was turbo.. when his friends saw it was non turbo they were rankin on him... no one shows any love for the G

personally i would reccoment getting the nismo CAI only because it comes with a bypass valve... same exact design... i actually have a AEM intake off of a SEDAN AT, i got it to fit perfectly with no issues at all

yeah besides lookin at peoples thread, people love the aem. i think the blue intake would look so sick under my hood, it would stick out and it'd look real legit. where in ny are you from ?
