Very nice wheels, really suit the car. What style of front bumper are you going for ?

mines had the noiseless look for the past 3 weeks !!! Except it was on axle stands too !!

Leave the \'cream piece\' on there if you can help it. The nose cone has absolutley no structural strength without it. Even though it\'s only made out of fiberglass, it can help to prevent more serious structural damage if you have a front ender.  If you\'re using \'99 spec lights, you can cut out the apetures a bit to get them to fit.
