here are some new pics of the car (finally I got my c/f running boards. only the c/f "inserts" in the bumpers are missing, and now I'm fightning for the smaller plate on the back)

The car looks beautiful. I hope your going to paint the inserts on those Momo's to match. I wish I could find a set of those wheels they might work great for my ghia.

thanks for the nice words! well, originally when I bought them 2 years ago I had the same idea. But since the car has been reborn, and got the smoked tail lights, tinted windows, and c/f parts I had changed my mind..

If I find something I really like in 17" or 18" I'll change them. In this case the factory coloured inserts are better.

This is how it would look with yellow inserts:

Here is a fast mock up I did with the wheels painted yellow. I think the car looks great as it is, the inserts give a nice offset even without being painted. It would be sick if you got the inserts covered in a carbon fiber film, or even have them duplicated as carbon fiber.

great idea, thanks! really like it :agree:
yes, I have led tail lights, they are custom made but they looks smart in dark. The whole light is red when it's on. When breaking, the center is brighter, if i use the turn signal the upper quarter changes between light red and yellow. I'll do some pics and load them up. thnx again for the idea, really like it.

the front screen is stock, it just seems like a tinted one

are you talking about the c/f "inlays" in the bumper? the man who made the other c/f parts will make it.
