The algorithm is simple:

if (drug_dealer OR pimp) {
set wheels = black_or_grey;
} else {
set wheels = standard;
}


Ditch the side steps too... Whistle

Keep same, just don't get this black trend. FL2 SD4 Metropolis Auto Santorini Black / ivory completely stock.

It's true that light travels faster than sound, some people look quite intelligent until you hear them speak.


Stop global winging.

I agree with the above, why does everything have to be black.
Black wheels = full of brake dust, can't be bothered to clean.

Half tempted by stainless tubes on mine?

I would get them done in shadow chrome again or gunmetal grey. Black wheels looks awful unless on a black car! Maybe get the D pillars coded and smoke the side repeaters if you are getting black side vents Whistle MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

Rolling with laughter Taz Firenze is a nice colour! I'm not a fan of red but I nearly did get a dynamic in that colour with the black grills it does look aggressive MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior
