    Nope, wrong again Dirk. You should discontinue being wrong. Yours are way better than OK.

    Yours are the best I've seen so far, IMO. You're are what I would copy if I were going to spend more than $2 on this car for anything other than regular maintenance.

    I will say though I'm not loving the fuel door / cover thingie. It's not bad, but since your green color is so nice, I would have kept the stock one for more green. And ... it's too bad the rear spoiler thing is not better color matched. Although, I personally wouldn't spend any money on making it better matched.

    I like yours too! I am at about $63/each for the mini rims (I bought them with tires mounted and need to sell that set of tires, then I will be able to recoup some cash)!


    Of course after the new tires/mounting/balancing/removing tpms sensors from stock wheels/etc I am at about $180 per wheel

    Dirk can confirm this, but I am pretty certain he bought his new rims & Barum tires from Discount Tires. These are the rims.

    https://www.discounttire.com/buy-wheels/vision-cross

    I can confirm these are the rims, because I have two of his boxes sitting in my garage from the first set he bought for his wife's G4. I bought two steel rims from Dirk & he shipped them in the Vision Cross boxes.

    The gun metal gray are $66.98/rim. Matte black are more expensive.

    Lol yeah looks like I ran thru the performance section of AutoZone/Amazon. I also have chrome covers for the spray nozzles, weathertech floor mats, tint job, Mitsu seatbelt pads, and Mitsu scruff panels. I enjoy the cheesy schtick and putting smiles on faces with my giant riced out Avocado. Name:  20200424_164958.jpg

    It was total of $400 to mount the wheels. The tires were older, from last year. When I did my wife's G4 she got tires and wheels, same brands & size as mine, for $600. Her steelies were dented to hell but functional, she just hated how cheap it made her car look. After year of admiring her new wheels, I just had to give my ride the same look. Wait till I post the LeBra I ordered for the hood lol. They'll feature my whip in Fast N Furious 17: Atlanta Hood Fury.
