    one of the best bumper tucks ive seen. Really does help the look of the car. Wheels would not stand out so much if they werent so shiney

      Those are some cool shots, particularly the one with the gutter.

      Nice looking iX.

        i really like it... it would benefit HUGE from plastic bumpers, but the car is pretty clean and tastefully done.

          That iX looks pretty damn good! It pulls off the diving boards quite well.

          What are the wheels, ASA?

              thanks guys! yeah the wheels are ASA's and I just hit 120k miles. :D

              plans for the relatively near future are...spacers for the rear, camber kit for the rear, new control arms/balljoints, JC chip, and a wiechers strut bar.

              later on- plastic bumpers, z3 or z4 shifter with new bushings, lightweight flywheel, all new brakes (rotors, pads, fluid, rebuilt calipers, and ss lines) new exhaust with IE longtube headers, thicker rear swaybar, suede headliner, and eventually I would love to talk to Jon at 666 fab about an ITB setup. :D

                  thanks man. I personally like the look of the wheels, but I also have my stock baskets and another set. I need new tires for my weaves and tires for my other wheels. Some of you guys would definitely drool at my other wheels. :D

                    The shot of the front of your car with the graffiti in the background is teats.

                      Man I love that car, and some great pics too. I cant believe that I am about to say this, but keep those diving boards. Would also love to see some interior pics, I love that color combo.

                        Werd. Paint them black, like mine. Then they would blend in with the shrouds/trim, and they wouldn't stand out as much.

                        Or paint the bumpers/shrouds body color, and leave the trim black.

                        Awesome shots! I almost bought those wheels, they're sick.

                          thanks for all the replies guys! I could take some interior shots tomorrow.

                          also, I have them in high-res if anybody does want them.

                          thanks again for the replies.

                              Looks awesome, one of the nicest iX's I've seen. Plastics would really complete the car.
