Oewheels is selling c5dd in machined face for like 350 for a set. Snag that and find used tires or something and get some corner lenses. Plastidip the manta to see how it basically looks

The decal is like $32 off ebay right now so not too bad if I don't like it. Can just rip the vinyl off of it. But I do like that idea with just doing the plastidip just in case. If this weather wasn't so screwed up this weekend that'd be my project.

I hear you on that one man..


If you like the stock rims I would just keep them for now and focus on something your not happy with. I think manta would look nice.

Do the manta, whistler mod your headlights and get lenses for the corners. Then save for a set of rims in tires. 16s just look outta place on these cars

Yeah, I should have bought Kevins when I had the chance lol. Always on the lookout for some either through tech or craigslist. Thinking I'm gonna try and plastidip the manta on the hood in a flat black provided the weather isn't a total crapshoot this weekend. My corners should be in on saturday.
