Default succesor 855R

Hello all,i'm not new,lol
So after driving 10 years in the old 855R,it was time to find a worthy succesor.
And found it in the form of a 2008 candidate
This is the new and improved grey one

So i did a combo of R-line pieces and Ocean race:

After doing that there was only 1 thing letting the car down(ideas?)

Yes you've thought so too:The wheels.

So looked around and came up with these 19" babies.
