I'm not going to quote the pics for the 9th time, but I like your car, Ivan.

Are those Varrs or Volks? I like that color combo. I think that if you opened up your lights and blacked them out, then blacked out your side markers, that it would tie it together even more.

I'm guessing Eibach Pro or similar moderate drop springs?

Man, I love seeing other people's Silverstone Roadsters.

What's the story behind the old Peugeot emblem on the front of the Z?

Those are not the Volks, they are Axis wheels, matrix is what they are called. They do look very similar though.

My bad! Well, anyways, they look good on your ZR. We looked at those, but didn't like the offsets offered. They seem to work nicely on your ride. Did you have to add spacers?

Yeah I sold the lemans couple of years back and recently bought this for the missus. They are varrs. I love the blacked out headlights look but don't know anybody that can do it year. Plus the cost of replacing a busted light is quite exorbitant.

Looks good. I like the varrs and have really though long and hard about them for my daily driver. I just can't justify volks on a DD that would eventually get curbed or stolen somewhere.

Tell me about it. I have the old school orange stripe HID lights, so I'm looking at the cost of saving up for the bi-xenons... and then I'm gonna stick them in the oven and do what? J/K One of these days, I'll get brave enough to do it.

I'm pretty partial to the silver and black & like how your sparcos keep with that theme.

I'd love to see some more pics of the leds for your DRLs. I did LED DRLs also, so I'm always checking out everyone else's approach. Did you do individual LEDs, LED strip, or is that one of the all in one LED light pods? Also, did you wire them up to your parking lights, to ACC power, or to an aftermarket switch?

hey thanks for the compliments!
I am developing the LEDs for market, they are hooked up to the ACC so they turn on in the ON position. I am testing out reliability right now and will probably be changing the housing for my final product. Here is a crappy phone pic I need to take better ones!
