I really like it with the Esprit fenders, looks really smooth that way.

I hope my car shines like that someday BUT I will just be happy to get it on the road!!

I'll be honest and say that I've NEVER seen a TA look that good without decals on it. If I were you I'd put stickers on it, but I would look for something, well, for lack of a better word, subtle, rather than going with gold. Something understated rather than "in your face" if you see where I"m going with this. But that is one FINE looking ride, man, I'm here to tell you.

Thanks guys, im not sure what color decals to go with yet but i want it to look really sharp and stealthy. I am not sure if i will stay with the same set of rims/tires. I am possibly thinking a set of black torque thrusts (thinking 17"). I know they are overused but thats for a reason right?

I'd get a set of Y1 Snowflakes and send them to Hitman and have them recolored to match your black paint. That would be VERY VERY tough

That would actually be really cool, hadnt thought about that. However i could get the torque thrusts with rubber for probably the same price as the Y1 rims and them being refinished.

Nice shots.  You Canadians and other Northerners are feeling the close of the season upon you.  I'll try to get a car out down here when the heat drops under 85 in the evening and snap some shots with Palm tree in the background ...
