What wheels and size are those? They look great.

Black wheels on a silver car really look great!

Plastidip her fender garnishes for the first time ever... it looks acceptable, still need to learn how to coat it better, though

Also, installed iJDM smoked side markers... they look so much better than that ugly orange.

She is dirty as hell, so I'm considering not uploading pics lol

Know what I did with it? NOTHING.

YEah that's Right. NOTHING.

Why? because it still is at the freakin port/being made/being formed from adamantium after a 40 year quest from another galaxy, so I don't have it yet.

I hope to have it before all of you have not evolved to fish again.

Not today but earlier this week...added a trunk pull strap because I was tired of dirty hands when the car wasn't clean and fingerprints when the car was freshly washed.
Might move it to the center, not sure yet though.

Edit: Second picture added. Buy it here.

Nice idea, does it work good? can you close the trunk just by pulling the strap?
more photos to share? :P

It works perfectly fine.
The first time I tried it the trunk didn't close all the way but after the second try you figure out the right angle and amount of force you use.
It is installed with a regular plastic rivet.

I saw this but didn't want it for reasons I'm leaving to myself.

Then I found this and bought it. It even comes with 2 plastic rivets.
I almost bought the one from a GTR which can be easily found online but then thought better of it.

I'll take another photo later after work. (Will be posted much later tonight).

I'm super interested in that strap. Does it feel secure with that plastic rivet? I'm not sure about the pre 2017s but in my car I feel that I have to slam the trunk, often using the spoiler...

The trunk is so light why do you have to slam it?
