Its tough finding wheels for the VXR8 over in the UK.. So after literally months searching the internet and chatting to different wheel companies over here and the US i have decided..

KMC Rockstars





Oh yes, they will be mine

also in the pipeline is Pedders suspension, Monkfish SportPac and window tints.
going to do the whole black on black thing

yes, simple yet very effective

i do like those optional vxr8 rims, but these are different and will make the car look very aggressive.

Dont like the facelift. They have tried to make it look classy with the audi style lights but they have made it look tacky!

In 2008 a new law was passed by the European Commission that meant all new cars and small vans purchased after February 2011 had to have daytime running lights, and lorries will follow suit from August 2012. The new vehicles will have the daytime running lights (DRL) that come on automatically when the engine is started. This law will not affect cars bought before this period and DRLīs will not have to be retro fitted.
