    you need some better wheels. I also like the ones before.
    Need something more fitting to the car.

      I liked the Alpinas too but I wanted a wheel with dish on the vert.

      I had these sitting around to put on my other vert until I decided to buy another one.

      I was considering taking off the 2" lip and setting a larger one from Kodiak for the rear.

        Fill and drill some style 5's. That will give you a lot mor tire options too.

          I like leather but I never liked how it melts off your skin when it gets some sun on it for a while.

          So since I have one car with cloth and one with leather I thought I'd do a swap and see how it all turns out.

          Here are the donor cars






          Might as well detail the interiors when the seats are coming out



          Cloth interior from my other vert



          Leather interior from Simone



          Rear seats and panels removed from Simone



          Rear black trim panels swapped over




          Cloth seats installed in Simone








          Leather seats installed in the other vert. I think it makes this car look pretty pimp.

                Love the plaid seats! the stance is looking great. Im on the fence with the chunky look of the wheels but I for one do like the car.

                  Probably the same thing when you put a set of wheels on

                      I think you should swap those rear headrest to oem on the blue int. Looks out of place.

                                Well, I misunderstood, if you see in the other post related to the caps, I thought he was getting some BBS RS.
