Got my new rims, I was going to get some XXRs but since this was going to be a daily driver, I wanted something easy to clean.

Posted by 67-7THREE (Member # 11207) on :

cobras never looked soo good. i like how they have a lip on them.

Posted by 89LXNotch (Member # 4879) on :

What did you end up getting for a DD? Can't wait to see it with the new wheels, also I agree that those Cobra wheels look hella clean with a lip.

I found them on Ebay, Cruizin Concepts told me they weren't making them anymore in gloss black, just in stealth black and Wheel Replica didn't list them as gloss black on their site, just happened to find the only listing of gloss black on Ebay.

Ebay, they are stickers to put over my Caps, I wanted new caps but I am not spending $200-$300 for a set of caps.

Special thanks to Moeofit32 for having all gloss black rims, otherwise I wouldn't ever thought about getting them.

Posted by NEIGHT (Member # 8741) on :

To the naked eye it will be a 302 all day haha. It will be a fun DD, I'm currently looking into the focus ST as DD. I get to drive them at work and I'm liking them more.

It's clean tan interior, I wanted black but I got a good deal on this one so I had to buy it, I replaced the seats twice just to get it real nice since the original seats weren't the best

I even replaced the to a cleaner steering wheel from my R with no cruise control

Thanks, I think it's the angle of my driveway but if it doesn't look lower once I start driving it, then I will probably put coil overs on the front to lower just a little more.

That's the plan but I will probably go really dark, I am tired of getting cell phone tickets, I would rather get a tinted window ticket
