Sharp wheels...and you did the calipers, too. Nice!

(None have mentioned that? )

My only suggestion (apart from GFX tips already mentioned) would be to get some Brembo stickers on there, just to give 'em that extra definition.

Tony, the GFX are painted black CF & the front looks like cause i didnt install the front GFX yet, i think it will look better with it installed, thanks.

Ahmad, Eid Mubarak!! That is one sweet looking ride. Those are the best rims I've seen on a Ralley Yellow car. I would seriously consider them on mine. Overall you've done a nice job.

Ahmad, the guy mentioning the car appears higher in the air - had nothing to do with suspension settings. It is a visual perspective, caused by the black GFX. They stand out too much visually, in contrast with the yellow. This makes the lower body line appear higher in the air, like the car is lifted. If you painted those GFX yellow, the car would appear much, much lower visually. They would also look less tacked-on, and appear like part of the vehicle body. Just something to consider. If you have carbon exposed, you might just leave the lowest couple centimeters of the GFX carbon and the rest yellow. Like a carbon border along the bottom edge.
