I am a sucker for my 18" JCW 5-point star wheels - when I put them on the for summer the car looks 300% faster and cooler....

.... but they broke my budget and will break yours !!!

Nice setup - you should be very happy !!

I love Pepper White, and of course this is just my personal opinion....but it looks a lot classier with a black top.

Well, looks great. The only thing you're forgetting is joining the PW Peerage, see the bottom of my sig.
I did the Ipod adapter myself and saved $150.00, not a bad install.
I like the PW roof color, I have the black but would have been good with the body color roof, too.

Add a Sport-Link

If they have a Sport-Link have them slap that on. If they don't, I'll sell you one. You asked! Enjoy your new car!!!
