Those look great, and the price definitely makes it better.
Gunmetal? I have gunmetal rims on my Camaro, I personally like them much better than any other finish.

Color is Graphite

They are 21 lbs each. Not that bad. but not good.

With tires, they will be ~45lbs of rotational weight which in not that bad. Good thing I dont have big brakes yet. I will have to get some lighter wheels and 2-piece rotors in the future

Parts for the S90/960:

Timing Belt, Water Pump, Spark Plugs, Tensioner Roller, Thermostat, K & N Box Air Filter, Fuel Filter, and Fuel Filter Washers. FCP is awsome. Even the free shipping was right on time!

Hood hinge, odomter cluster plug, drivers door mirror, hood lifter, head light bulb access cover, front marker light bulb & socket, and power door switch (try in my 850) from the salvage yard.

Battery from Wal-Mart.

I won't call them purchases, but did adopt 2 dogs in the past few weeks that cost a ton of money from SPCA, new headliner material along with glue for it.

Recent purchases eh? Guess the car:

It's destined to be a track day/ hillclimb car. I realised a Volvo wagon was just too heavy and large to be really fun at the track. Besides, if I bin the new car, well, at $600 I'm not too worried. I'd easily recoup that selling parts.

Regards, Andrew.
