Yes. Yes I do!
Very Nice!
Great success!
What are they - size? model? brand?
Strangely, I think that they look better without the centre caps, but that's just me I guess... :wtf:

Absolutely perfect! Great colour combination.

I think the caps look ordinary. Rather than keeping them off, I would have them chromed and insert
a mitsu logo in the centre :beer

Plenty of logos on ebay....

i can only do a group discount on these through otomoto if we get a decent amount of people and money up front.

and yes they fit without spacers as they're +10mm offset.
Fibreglass airdams $370, fibreglass front bumpers $260, reco drag links $165, alloy radiators $925 (unpolished), h/l switch rebuilds $125, all plus freight.

As a rough guess, How many would we need? and how much of a discount do you estimate?
