Your car looks very nice, love those Volks, audio system is clean, I think a slight drop couldnt hurt. I looking to order the same wheels as you except in gunmetal, just curious as to who you went through?

I got my wheels through a local discount tire...it was pricey but worth it...and I know somebody up there

and they are mercury silver...i've heard the spark silver doesn't look very good

and i'll get more pics of the trunk up soon, i have to go have it fixed as the bottom piece of plexiglass came unhooked...gonna have to drill some more screws to make it even tighter so it won't do that

thanks for the praise =)

So how much brighter are the regular silver (if you know), and why would they look bad?

^ think of the regular silver as the typical racing hart silver finish, but brighter and much more plain looking. very bland in detail and color. mercury silver is WAY hotter.

congrats! i too have sf-challenges in mercury silver. these shoes have such detail it's amazing. i always get comps about them from people. are you gonna bring the fronts out a little more being that they're 8.5's?

When you post more pics of the trunk can you also let me know what your running. Your setup looks very nice, my next project is a custom trunk in my G. I love the leather looks like that, beautiful.

Beautiful. Makes me want to slap some more polish on my Black baby. What do you polish it with and what tint is that? It looks nice.

That looks awesome!

Your sig mentions soon-to-come double-din. Where are you getting the A/C controls from? - I can't find them anywhere...
