Don't think Ken would forgive me if I gave the dc white wheels... maybe if it had a channel-tunnel sized exhaust and roof spoiler bigger than the car itself
Slightly off-topic but seeing those photos of the 2009 G4 model, I think they need to see Ken about fitting some more meaty lights Could put the sun to shame with that array2007 Porsche Boxster (987) 2.7

I take it when you say 'mamby pamby' rims you mean 'beautifully crafted and excellently proportioned 10 spoke rims' 2007 Porsche Boxster (987) 2.7

That as well but you'd never have it any other way!!!
Chuffed to bits with my 19s. The ride has been so much better...... right up to the point where the bushes started wandering about all over the place.
Still, in for a 45,000 mile service in a couple of weeks. LOOOOOOooooooong list of warranty items to attend to I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
