Be good to know too...

What did you need to do to fill the holes? Can we have a close up of the finish?

I was going to say that and there are a handful of others that are so nice that you can't really pick a best one.

I would also agree that the no-roof-rack mod looks good on an Imola Red 4.8is with big ol' DPE forged wheels. (I think they're DPE's.) Looking good.

correct..

they are DPE 22" R16s with 275/30/22 all around. The rim is 22x10 all around. I have 30mm spacers on the rear to make it be flush wit the extended rear fenders on the 4.8's
