rex, what ever came of your wheels and damaged bumper?
Still havent had time to get it fixed unfortunately, but I was quoted ~$200 OTD for two wheels (one with clear coat peeling and the other with all the bite marks)

What do you think?

don't know how much damage there is to the wheel, but $100 per wheel is fair...son tran might be able to do it for cheaper if it's just rash...

Not horrible, no rubbing when I am solo in the car. But on the weekend when I had 2 girls it would rub on the passenger rear fender so I am thinking if I add even 1 passenger it will rub. It only rubs on big dips or uneven freeway's where your car slightly goes up over a bump.

Super impressed with the Hankook's though over the stock RFT's. Can easily feel the difference in cornering.

Bav shop can be expensive though

V12s are good for the price no doubt.
Had it on the SLK in the past and they're great.
But i won't ever buy them again, I know that for sure.



So I think I"ll change the new Z's lights to Alpine HIDs like the 09 one had

^anything is better than OEM halogen ae's..

for sure bav workshop would be expensive if they do offer fender rolling, but don't think they do, which is why i just suggested to call them for a recc to another shop/service..

^fog light fail...

really, you like stock more than gp thunders? I think hoen endurance/yellow halogen/ 4300K looks better than the "white" gp thunders" if we are talking about just halogen bulb alternatives...wonder how those aib v4's compare to lux's..hmmm
