Looking really smart mate. Great work on the wheels and the red H badge on the centre cap is a nice touch. Also, those long wheel bolts look cool too. Nice car :D

^ thanks man,

But I have to replace he blue lugs with oem lugs. The way the blue ones sit need a tapered end and the oem lugs are beveled. So the blue ones aren't really that safe.

I have it torqued down at the moment but I'm looking to buy oem lugs to replace it with.

Love those type of wire strippers.

What model Alpine head unit have you taken out?

^ Thanks!

the clearcoat is starting to turn a light shade of yellow on the front wheels, I must have applied a little too much but because i like how it looks in white i'm now thinking about powdercoating them over winter :)

Also pulled the usb cord for the unit to come out just below the center consol. I am planning on something to make it a much cleaner setup for the usb and i will post it up when i do it :)
