Here you go, hope this is what you were looking for!








I was a little limited on space so if you want one further out I can try again later.

I also have a question...

Where can I find some black lugs? I've tried a few places (Amazon, Pep Boys, American Tire Depot) with no luck. Searching online doesn't seem to give me any results.

I would just spray them yourself. Regardless of where you buy them they are going to get marred like crazy the first time a grease monkey touches them with an impact driver.

thank you very much for the pictures. i was curious how they will look without the arches.

i think they look pretty good and don't feel the arches are necessary (they are not sticking out pass the fenders)

Glad you also feel the same way. I guess after some thought it's not the arches that I'm so crazy about, I just don't want any textured pieces. So I'm trying to figure out if it's much cheaper to get the textured pieces properly prepped and painted to match the car or if it's a small price difference to just go for the sport design package that has the pieces primered and ready for paint. Hopefully I'll get some final quotes this week!

Why not just get the chrome window trim/chrome strip on the trunk wrapped in vinyl for 200-300$ and get some lowering links ($150) and call it a day until you get the itch again to mod the car.

That's my plan for mine. Just waiting for the Michigan winter to pass before putting the 21" rims and lowering links.

Getting the gloss black vinyl wrap done the 2nd week of November.

I think I will try getting it out of my head for now and doing the simple stuff. It seems like having the sportdesign kit installed will cost me almost 1/5 of the car's value which I can't justify in any way. Painting the textured pieces seems like a great route but I'm not ready to part with the car for the week or two that it'll take just yet.

I haven't seen much good said about the lowering links but I'm definitely doing the window trim/chrome strim on the trunk wrap soon too. Good luck with yours!
