j-allan: Don, how can you sleep at night knowing your car is available to drive 24/7? Very, very tasteful mods, IMO, from the signal mirrors to the hids and engine compartment, well done!
Kat_Daddy: btw, i think plat still holds the milly crown here. Don is moving into the #1 contender spot though...

we will have to see where this goes before i take him under my wing

hmm gunmetal... i dunno about gunmetal kinda ricey go with a hyper silver, closest thing to chrome but not quite chrome and the price difference on the tires isnt bad but rims are more. As for price my BSA's were 1100$ with tires mounted and balanced with locking lugs oh and shiped

lol, i think he may be able to pull of the gunmetal, but it all depends on the color of his car...and i agree that silver will be a better choice if he wants that chrome look without being actual chrome and without the price..
