UK My new wheels
Hi guys

I finally fit my new wheels @ the weekend. They are stock 8 rims, but powder coated black.

Thanks for the comments guys. Regarding the rear spoiler, it's a Prodrive, it was fitted on the PZ edition, over here in the UK. I'm unsure if the PZ edition made it to your shores, but if I remember correcty there were 500 made.

Although my car is standard, and not a PZ, I did manage to purchase the PZ spoiler from my local dealer. They supplied, painted, and fit it for £429. I do think there quite hard to come by. I shall post some rear pics next week.

The rotary centercaps make them look stock. Nice job, they look great on your car.
