Looks lovely the car mate, wish mine looked half that clean!
I'd have them in white myself but I am biased.....

The changes will take place through this week.
The last one being the most time consuming (removing and 're wiring my ice and sub)
I will try the darker arcadias first, then see how the 18's look.
Hope to have it completed on Saturday.
Will take pics of the changes as they go on.

IMO anthracite grey would look pretty swish on those wheels!

It's what I plan to do to mine when I get round to it and finally get some arcadias

EDIT: Forgot to say, nice looking car! Best colour to
