Thanks for the compliment! I'll have pictures up soon after I get them. I really don't like the bodykit+stock rims thing though. I think it looks ricey and tacky and wished I got rims earlier. good thing i had the ex alloys. the lx blackies/hubcaps would have been terrible with this look.

as for funds, my dad's paying for the rims as a graduation present/deal. (if i got into berkeley i choose any benz under $70k...i got in, but i decided not to go, so he agreed to buy me rims instead.)

brand new 18" Tenzo Passion-5 with Namkang tires (****.tires) hehe. $1040 total. amazingly, my dad hooked it up (knows a friend that works there)
