Very nice hardtop. How do you like the white wheels?
I have always loved the white ones, but know they are tough to keep clean.

In my personal opinion I think they set the car off more than the chrome.

I really like the white wheels on it. I think they its really hard to pull off but in this case it works pretty well. They were a pain to keep clean with the brembo pads but once i switched to Hawk pads, its a lot more manageable since they are low dust, but then i wash it every week too.

Its funny how the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. Its the sickness we live with boys. At first, our car is the greatest thing ever created upon the first drive. A couple years pass and we get used to the hp level and looks of the car.
We pass that guy that just got a modded 03 Cobra, Saleen, Roush, ...basically anything that someone has put wrench time /blood/sweat/tears into and we wish it were ours. Im no different as when I told the ole lady that this was my dream car and I would never want to modify one thing on it. Pshhh yeah right. Now Im hung up thinking, Damn that guys Cobra will handle 850 hp on the bottom end without blinking.

Tell me if im lying boys....
We all have the sickness :SNSign:

Yep,
The numbers light up blue...and the needles are backlit. The white still stays pretty much white on the face.

No pics as Im workin the grave yard shift and the car is in the garage at home.
If anyone else can get a pic up, I would appreciate it.

Excellent. Now I can get good gauges that match it instead of it either not matching or having to get horrid indiglo gauges.
