Thanks and LOL... if not black, what color are the BLACK Star Bullet wheels ? They're a matte black, but they are black.

Thanks a lot man! They are a custom kit we put together at my dad's shop. I made all the measurements, sourced all the parts and accessories, modified pieces. He fabricated custom brackets out of solid aluminum and made the lines to retrofit a full Porsche 996S Big Red front brake kit. I'm so lucky, very happy with this setup.

17" Conical Spokes with many, many, many rock chips. How do you guys avoid those? My wheels look like a starry night sky.

Here you go. The day I picked it up (a little more than a week ago). The weather hasn't cooperated since. Will likely step up to 17s but keep with the same theme.

How does it ride on the H&R springs?

That GP2 Rear diffuser kit is a thing of beauty on that shot.

Nice!

My Black Star Bullets are pretty curbed. I picked up a pair of Infinite Streams that I'm going to Plasti-Dip, but I can't decide whether to go matte black or gloss.

This is an old pic before I blacked out the trim.
