Default Wheels re-done
I was never too sure of the wheels that came on my car but stuck with them as they are very light 17" BBS. I've toyed with changing the colour for ages but could never decide.

No - actually they are powdercoated, magnesium (Gunmetal) in the centre of the spokes lightened to the outer ring.

Its an excellent job.

Nice wheels !

That hardtop looks familiar.....

...where have I seen it before ?

I may be wrong, but it looks like the Mugen one that DBM had.
