Are grills glossy black or just the surrounding frame is glossy? With the color of your car it looks much better now. Congrats on one great car!

As promised, here are some pics from pick up //

The long was super long because I guess EVERYONE wanted to pick up their cars yesterday as well. During the wait, my CA let me drive my car to my friend's shop to get my 22's mounted, drove back, signed the paper work, and the car was finally all MINE!

Here are some iphone pics, will do a proper photo shoot soon //

@atranphoto, your car looks amazing, bro! congrats and thank you for the great pics!

What's your wheel/tire setup? The rears look sick. Very aggressive stance.

Also, you should def order the front grill rim set: http://www.rgsportshop.com/index.php..._category=true

Thanks man!!! My wheels are staggered, 22x10 F and 22x11 R. Tires are 285/35. I wanted a wider set up in the rear but they didn't have anything available so I just settled. Still looks pretty wide though!

And YES, I definitely plan on ordering the front grill set, just not now because I already dropped so much money on the car hehe.

Going to install the stage 1, and intake after my final exams ):

Wow, looks so sweet. Can't wait for the proper pictures. Looks like a lot of photography geeks owning the F15, hehe.

Gorgeous, wavering on color choice but you made it easy. What interior color did you go with?

Where did you purchase black grill?

Nice, man! After looking at your car, I kind of wish I did staggered instead of 22x10 all the way around. I have the same tire size as well (the thickness is worth it).

Future mods sound good - update us with more pics when possible .
