I like those wheels, very shiny.   :cool: fook me, how many other wheels have you got!.... inside of mine doesn't look much beter to be fair though!  :lipsrsealed:

Do you cover this car???... i'm concerned about your sunroof mate if you dont.. water will just go in that skin and start making its way to more vulnerable places!
