Started with the 214 wheels and lowered the vehicle with H&R 1.2" springs and adjustable custom rear links. Then installed the Aero kit and upgraded to 215 wheels in ferric grey. Removed original roof rails and replaced with powder coated high gloss black M Sport rails to match shadowline black trim. Finally installed black high gloss kidney grills and carbon fiber roundels and center caps...

I still really like the look in the first pic! I'm not 100% sure about the black grills. Now the grey mesh stands out and I may have to get that painted black too! Then the exhaust tips, etc.
