Yes im going to add subtle orange accents to flow with the car. The rims are called Status Dynasty and only come in black and chrome but i had them repainted in the matte black with orange. I can feel a minimal diffrence in ride quality but i do feel like Im higher up allot.

Maybe get the kidney grills painted blk and only the chrome surround painted orange; or a small orange decal in the rear side window.

I think it looks awesome. Props to you! I wish more people would do something out of the ordinary and have fun with their cars. I'm trying to decide on some wheels myself, problem is I can't afford anything I like...Hamann, HRE, Modulare, etc.

What kind of wheels are those, and what size tires?? Did you notice any change in the height of the vehicle or are you going to lower it too?

Something to liven up the ride. Just the wheels being orange is not my cup of tea but would like to see some pics when you are done with all the color accents.

Paint all the grills in Black but the kidney grills frame in orange . you can see the lines I told you about I have paint them in black

I think a thin orange line on the side mirrors would look nice too ! those are just suggestions to help you !


nice car !
