I see a lot of expensive parts that I really like individually but I think the attention to detail in putting them together isn't there. Some things should be painted or changed so that they all go together better. The steering wheel stitching and the hub don't match each other or go with the rest of the interior. There's way too many different colors/materials and things going on in the engine bay. The wheels remind me of some Motegi's from the days of F&F. Just my .02 on the aesthetics The car does seem functional though, I do love the side skirts and the mirrors.

It seems like you're mostly about the aesthetics especially since you're obviously planning some sort of Hellaflush stance in the future in which case if you're all about the looks and have the kind of $$$ that you're throwing into this thing then you should try to to make things match a bit better.

You do know that earlier the year my car theme was Gold/white/carbon fiber right? The Rose Gold NRG quick release hub and yellow stitching Personal Nardi wheel were left over parts of the gold theme I had earlier this year. I also had a pair of Recaro Pole positions in the car before I got the Brides. What you see in this thread was simply pictures of my latest wheel pickup. I had no intentions to play this off as a brand new color matched setup. Next year will be different when I get a chance to replace the wheel and quick release with red WORKS Bell and another steering wheel with red stitching to match the red stitching on the Brides. Other decal will be replaced to match my next set of wheels for next year. I don't mix match parts for the hell of it, each part has a purpose.

Oh well then that makes a lot more sense, I didn't know about the previous setup or that this was a transition to a new setup in that case good work and can't wait to see what it's like when it's all done!
