So nice looking, love the mods so far. Somethin about all-clear headlights on white.

Maybe space the rear wheels a little? And paint those mudflaps!

Super clean! I'm jealous, you could never keep a white car looking like that up here in New England. Minimalist/tasteful mods. Looks almost stock except there's just something special about it. I can dig the black mudflaps, offsets the tints well

very clean! if the smoke smells bothering you, changing the cabin air filter should help, if it's still really bad the only true way of getting it all out is removing aaalllll the interior and wiping down the backs of every panel and the carsmetal interior, and possibly tossing seats and headliner

I see white cars run in the family.

Parents' Benz sneaking in to the shot in the last pic.

Ride looks very clean, colour-matched mud flaps would look good, although you COULD try blue ones for something different! :D

Agree with RR about spacing those wheels out some.

Would like to see it lower with a lip kit or a really aggressive drop without.
