Idk why they do. But its okay becuse the day the come in the mail theyre getting either stripped thet ill start to polish or ill dropp them off at a powder coater

Those would look pretty sweet. I think a bronze would look good but then everyone would mistake them for Rota Grids. Can't have that. :lawl:

So ready to do my retro. :ughrun:
I should have time to do it in May. Until then, the headlights are staying stock.

I think I like this one better than the first.

Once you get the retro done and some rims, should be looking great.

I might have modded one before this one. :lawl:
Thanks :D
I'll get wheels eventually. I just don't know when. I also don't know if I should even get some now because I drive around 80 miles a day, as this is my daily driver.

I'll trade you for your alloys any day. Hubcaps suck when taking the wheels on/off. I miss my alloys, haha.

Thanks :) i know for a fact I'll do the retro in a month or 2 at the latest, I just have no clue when I'll get wheels. haha
I'm just looking for some 0102 coupe alloy 4 lug wheels to replace these wheels with, just for daily driving. If I can come across a good enough deal, the local tire place I like said they will put the new tires I just bought this Tuesday on the new wheels for $5 a piece. Idk what should be charged for that, but $20 sounds good for mounting and balancing tires right? He said the warranty of the tires would be transferred of course.
I'm more than likely not doing a 5-lug swap. I'll just suck it up and take the crappy wheel selection. :lawl:
