First of all thanks for your positive feedback.

And what comes to those offsets. Well it is now much better with those 6mm spacers than in those pics without. The wheel lip comes out about 5mm of the fender but still the wheel goes in and doesnt rub at all. Im also planning on repainting the whole car and maybe I do some fender work then into rear and try to get some new rear wheels with offset near 0.

Will get you also better pics as soon I get my friend to took some photoshoot with his new 5D Mark II!

Thanks again for positive feedback guys. Something new is also in progress. Well it all started when I ordered these smoked sidemarkers.

And after ordering those sidemarkers I figured to do a little modify on my heads too to look like this.

Forum image

Sidemarkers are now shipped to me and I'm thinking of painting those headlights at the same time I change those sidemarkers. So it's not already done but hopefully will be in a week or so. And also adding "usa" style parking lights into those orange blinkers on headlights. Those bulbs should then work as parking and blinker lights at the same time. Hope you got the idea cos my english ain't that proper. Sorry for that.

Also planning on changing those tires to 35profile so I'd get the car sit an inch lower than now. It's never gonna be low enough if you know what I mean? Thinking about 215/35 on front and 235/35 on rear would be just perfect.
