What brand are those? Love them! Are the 18s?

I know no one agrees, but I like it not lowered, looks a little more traditional muscle car to me.

They are Vossen wheels. 20 x 9 in the front and 20 x 10.5 in the rear. The tires are Hankook Ventus V12 Evos. 255/35/20's front and 285/30/20's rear.

Look great. Wheels always make such a big difference. Not the most common choice.

Nice setup up front too.

Looks good! But what I want to see more of is your front bumper. Is that the Roush front with the bottom portion blacked out?

Yeah, Roush with the front bottom blacked out. Also painted the rear valance and had the painter do grabber blue accents. Oh, and also the billet grille with stock fogs behind. ;-)

I took the car to the NMCA car show at the track in Bradenton, FL today but I didn't win anything. Lol

I like that look a lot! I might have to copy a little from you with that front bumper. Do you have 2 different switches for the 2 sets of fogs?

As long as you don't live in FL and you give me 50% credit. Lol ;-)

It the standard switch/wiring harness that comes with the front fascia. It just toggles between the two, so I haven't figured out a way yet to have them all on. I think it may not be street legal to anyway. Lol But it would be cool...

Lol no worries...I'm about 1300 miles away. Or I was going to get the lower grill, but not sure yet.

I love the painted (black) area on the lower bumper. Works very well on grabber blue. Thought about doing it to mine but it doesnt "pop" on Kona Blue as well as it does on yours. I also like the fogs behind the retro grill as well. I would love to know more about how you did that!

Thanks! Yeah it is definitely a nice accent on the back.

Wish I could say I did the fogs behind the grille on my own...but I didn't. Lol
It's actually a hidden fog light billet grille made by DG Custom Auto.
