Default Its coming along. With some Alleykat magic

Thought I would post some pics on some progress I am making on my S2 Ap1. I recently bought some wheels along with a few other items, and at first I was ok with them. But then I saw what Alleykat can do with his powder coating action and decided to go a little crazy on the color. As of right now these are just phone pictures and later on when the weather gets nicer and a good wash/wax of my car I'll post up some pics using a real camera. Enjoy

They are xxr 521 18x10 with 25 offset all around. I have 215/35 in the front and 225/40 in the rear. I might change it up in the near future cause the tires came with the rims.

I have actually been looking into it, and have been quoted a price. Just not sure if it would look funny having no body kit and flares. What do you guys think? I mean I have seen it done, but some look good and some dont due to wheel choice. So I dont want to go through all the cutting hassle and come out crappy looking. Wouldnt mind the input.

I'm getting flares with no body kit. So is Matt. I have seen plenty without a full kit. Yours would look nice with them.

Personally, I like the stock color on the wheels more, but looks good regardless

Let me know when you do, I would love to see some pics and where you guys are getting them installed at? Thats another thing thats holding me back, not sure where to do the cutting and install.

Thanks! I like the original color too, and would normally keep it but since this isnt my daily I decided to go a little beyond the norm. Trust me if this was my daily I wouldnt try to bring attention to it. We all know thief's love slashing our roofs.
