DJE's Exterior Mods

[DJE624]

Well, today started out as a nightmare.  I got a call from my dealer that the wheels had showed up.  He then told me that their wheel balancer was on the fritz.  He wanted me to come in next Wednesday!  I almost cried.  I called around to a few good shops.  F & F wanted $40 a pop to re-mount.  I found another place, a really good place that would do them for $20 a pop like the dealer would.  So, I drove 20 some miles each way to go pick up the wheels and bring them to my new guy.  They did a fantastic job!  No damage, TPMS, torqued to 100, hub emblems straight and great treatment.  I found out why my TPMS light has been going on too.  The left front with 40 actual psi is registering at 29 psi.  So, now I can get the dealer to fix that.  I am ecstatic! All I can say is "It looks BOSS"!  Anyway, on to the pictures!

I took a video when they pulled it out for a test drive.  I'll try to get that up.

Looks super Dave!  :clap:
Simple and clean, A real compliment to your SHO's appearance... and look easy to keep clean too  :thumb:

BTW, did you shovel the drive for the pics?

very nice!

originally i thought they were too subtle and were not worth the change from the standard rims.  But, they look very good and classy, reminds me of a large Audi (definitely a compliment).

BTW, how much did it cost to get rid of the pinstripe and who did it?

Thanks DRII  I took the pin striping off the night I brought her home with a fingernail and 3M adhesive remover.

LOL  Thanks Chris!  If/when the weather ever gets to them they will be painted White Platinum.

Dave, they look great, too bad the weather isn't better so they stay clean a bit longer.  You made a great choice, they really compliment the car very nicely!

Thanks Mark!  I can't wait for nice weather to detail her up good and get some ROTM quality pictures!  I did stop off for a spray wash on the way home.  I'll get her in the garage tomorrow and do what I can.  Thaw her out and get the tires dressed.

Finally got two videos uploaded to Utube from my phone.  Too bad the one had so much noise.  Just turn the volume off.  I just really wanted to see how the wheels looked turning.  I forgot my camera.  Had to use phone.

Definitely looks BOSS, Dave!  Almost as good as the slicers on the Gen 2's ... J/K!!!  The videos rule!  Now pump out some low bass thru the speakers as you drive, like Barry-White-low
