Thanks! The SS wheels are going to really change the look of it. I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas right now, knowing I can't have the wheels until next Friday!

Gonna get an intake made up I think here soon too, and then tune and I think it will be done for a good amount of time.

Poor thing only has 11k miles on it right now and in the 3 weeks we have had it I have transformed it completely lol

I've only put 13K miles on mine and it'* completley different. Have you lowered it yet? or are you waiting until the wheels are on it?

Gonna wait til the wheels are on. Stock tires that come with the wheels are 255/50/20, but I might go with a 265/50/20 when they are worn out to fill the wheel well a little more...but leaning towards 275/45/20 just because I like WIDE tires haha.

Don't know how it will look until they are on..I might like it the way it is, who knows...if I don't a lowering kit will have to wait a little bit as that will be another $400+ expense with new struts.

New Wheels are on, here are some quick pictures I took out front of my place showing the new wheels, the new exhaust, and the vinyl emblems I had made for the wheels and Front Bowtie.

Not sure if I am going to keep the front bowtie RS emblem yet or not, as I think I like it better without it on.

Oh and ignore all the bugs on the front and in the grill...had 10 hours of driving on it yesterday and it collected a few lol.

Tires on the wheels are 255/50/20 and today I just ordered a set of 275/45/20 to make them even wider. Will get pics once they are on this week.

FULL photoshoot to come soon.

Wow! The difference is amazing. Are you still planning on lowering it a touch? Great job in the transformation.
