+1 that looks so subtile and cool. I would never have thought of silverstone and white, works perfectly, unlike some other combinations posted recently.

Cheers for the comments guys, I'm glad you all like it 
I would never have thought that white would work so well either until I saw a Silverstone in the US section with a set of white Rota Torque Drifts. From there on in that was my inspiration with wheel colour...and I nearly bought the rota's they looked so good but I've wanted XD9's for long time now and am definitely happy knowing I've made the right choice.
Matt, I'm really pleased you like what I have done with the car as well; there's nothing worse than selling a car and then seeing it bastardised into some sort of hideous monster!

Looks great alex!! Jealous!
I love the white wheels on silverstone, that's why I had my oem's painted pearl white a couple of months ago!! Just wish they were 17" so my wish list continues.....
By the way big thanks to you and whaninoz for helping me sort out my hardtop too. Top blokes the pair of you!
Need to sort a Kettering silverstone mini meet! Haha!

Yep 
Would never of thought of white with silverstone either but they compliment each other really well.
The changes look subtle with the ride height and the plate placement thus not detracting away too much from its original form. Whoever said the S looks boring in its native guise!!
I'm wondering how a meshed grill on the front would look!! Maybe in white or polished ??
Good effort!!

I like white. Was quite taken with TinTinsToy’s at the last Carlimits at North Weald. He has a spiky quiff to set them off. Not sure whether raven public school floppy goes with your edgy XD9s Spykee.
Nice photographs. Like the shallow DOF in your S2KUK shot. Have to agree with S2K-Phil about the ‘aerials’. No mistake on your part though I think as you have chosen a shot with giant antennae for your avatar.
I would certainly get excited following that mean-looking 2.5 degrees of camber. Thing is, is your car Ricky friendly?
