Very nice Mikey ....but we need better pics man :D

[Dominik]

Very nice... the kit looks very nice painted

Personal opinion, but i like the flushed look more than tucked... The one in your sig seems to be the same height but not tucked so i'm guessing its all in the offsets...

Still a very hot car!

Yep, all about the offset. Always buy the wheels you want, in the sizes you want...and make the car fit them.

[gato]

very nice, the paint looks hott.

any plans on spacers ::)

[HG50]

looks pretty sick man.

[Pagong]

make the car fit them.



Thats how I ended up with my wheels.. ;)

[JN.FYC]

Very Nice.

Are you on Air?

The Chrome Wheels. Trimming. and Door handles. go with the flow.

[tech126]

That's bad ass MIke!!! :D When I fly over again, hope to see it at the shop,...

[Lexbubba]

Nice, did you get the exhaust and fogs also?

Wait,Wait,Wait,Wait,,,,He has two sets of wheels. The pictures shows his daily drivers(chrome with a milder offset) .His other show wheels with a more agressive offset's are not shown yet..Mikey Looks good man...Les see some photos with the show wheels on 8)

[firelizard]

[Xotic sC]

awesome. :)

It's so amazing how the perfect drop, wheel fitment and a body kit can set off the entire look of the exterior already.

[NG C-Klasse]

Far from perfect wheel fitment. Mikey you know we're sticklers for that, the air and aero is of course nice. Just too mild for my tastes. Hopefully the other wheels go on the car and become the daily wheels.

[Brandicus]

looks great, love the drop ;D

[carlos]

thats hot.

[nezumimaru]

very impressive body kit!
I am very excited that it's finally been painted and fitted
congradulations to you!

[AME_VIP]

x2 try on the more aggressive offsets :D

Great work so far! I heart Air runner

[Gao Jian]

I like the kit but where are the fogs??? It makes the front end look sooo black, can't wait to see how the other offsets look on the car cause air runner does a great job of tucking wheels when they drop the car. Car looks good and keep us posted.

thanks, no 1 imperfection anywhere (believe me, i checked). i can't see an orange peel, blemish, scratch or dip or dimple anywhere. even on the panel where they shaved the antennae (my driver side was repainted for this). very quality work...

[Pimplux_A4]

thank you chief, gonna revamp the entire look for the december show (hot import nights) so this is like a introduction sorta speak, kinda like a version1.0 and then the new look should go well w/the 96-97 trunk and other swank.

[Pimplux_A4]

very impressive body kit!
I am very excited that it's finally been painted and fitted

3 more days!!!

[PMP-LEX]

Looks good Mike...Personally, I love the attena...it's a nice little chrome peace that adds to the VIP flava...I think that bold world kit ONLY looks good in black...seen some white one's in a magazine and didn't look right...of course you know what I think of the whole 'mode parfume and trafficstar RTS' so I won't comment on that :D

Overall, nice project...definitely need to lose that grill...you have all those nice Japanese parts with a stock grill...not my style...I think the JDM headlights will add a nice touch and clearing out the taillights...

[JDMJim]

back wheels should be on the front. then the new back wheels could be super deep. but the car looks cool anyway cuz i don't have one. props

sup man, yeah, the new rims should fit pretty good too. my goal is to squeeze a 20-inch set in there (soon)... have a good one. mikey

[Pimplux_A4]

well its definitely a very nice job, but i will agree on the fitment tho...

good, constructive criticsm there and i do agree... my daily driver set came off of a infiniti g35, they are 29mm all-around to clear them factory brembo's.... i saw u lurking the xk forums last night...ekekekekekekekke... take it easy mang, peas out. mikey

[Benji]

Very nice man, I like it.

[Pimplux_A4]

Where were you at Johnny? We were at the Falken booth most of the night. I don't know who I'm looking for and I thought I saw you once like in a suit or something...was that you?

On topic, saw your car Mikey, looks nice besides the wheel fitment. Get that right and it'll look 100% better.

[Pimplux_A4]
