Gil,

I must say - that looks GREAT man. The spokes are just the right size and spaced out that just look 'right' on your GT. Congrats man.....just in time for the nice weather eh? Not sure about NY but its GREAT in PA right now....

Thank you very much, buddy. :)

Yes, thankfully it is gorgeous here the past 2 days. Sunny and 50's. Looking forward to a nice spring. :)

alzilla300 03-23-2008 10:15 AM

Looks great! They make the rear brakes look a bit puny though. What size are they?

frap 03-23-2008 10:42 AM

They look amazing! Nice car :)

LUISGT3 03-23-2008 10:45 AM

Looks tight Gil.

RidinBimmerz 03-23-2008 02:08 PM

Looks perfect!

Stryke 03-23-2008 03:50 PM

Thanks guys! :)

RFFG 03-23-2008 05:59 PM

Looks great!

Jeff SD 03-23-2008 06:24 PM

Looks Great Gil! Ever think about painting the calipers yellow? I bet it would look awesome.

Zach 03-23-2008 06:25 PM

Very nice

Antz_997s 03-23-2008 06:32 PM

Simply gorgeous!!! V clean and classy looking!

mburnstein 03-23-2008 07:40 PM

Hi Gil,
Any plans for a kit like wald or other types?

thomascrown 03-23-2008 10:08 PM

Hey Gil,
If you're interested, I'm ordering some parts for my spur this week (lip spoiler and tinted tail lamps). If you are down, I can try to get a discount on the lip spoiler if we buy together.

Igor 03-24-2008 12:15 AM

looks nice, now it needs to be lower...

What is everyone's obsession with slamming their cars? The stock height with the right wheel looks great!

I think tucking is ugly, imo.

LIL RAJA 03-24-2008 02:21 PM

man, i better get a ride when i get a watch from you in the summer.
looking SUPER hot.

Stryke 03-24-2008 08:53 PM

I hate that slammed look actually. I think if it's not Japanese it needs to maintain some level of class.

mburnstein 03-24-2008 08:57 PM

slamming? With the electronic lowering module, you can have a setting for stock or lowered. Choose your poison

CaymanSJF 03-25-2008 09:06 AM

So Gil what's your report on the Bentley so far? Reliability, performance, etc. TIA.

Stryke 03-25-2008 09:11 AM

Love everything about the car, except the gas consumption. I don't care about how much it drinks but the tank needs to be bigger so I don't have to fill it up every two days. Otherwise it rocks in every department.

OXYGEN8 03-25-2008 09:16 AM

Gil - Looks great bud.

BTW - What is NY policy on having front window tints? In Chicago, we need a rx saying you need front window tints.

Stryke 03-25-2008 09:26 AM

Here are some more pics including custom fur mats my friend in the fur business made for me. He made them with an alligator lining. Really nice and feels great when driving barefoot. :)

Love the mats...

thomascrown 03-25-2008 11:18 AM

We've got the exact same interior, save for I have the wood wheel and two extra doors, lol. I've got the stock Lamb's wool mats, and they feel great.

I am with you 100% about dropping the car.

srtricky 03-25-2008 11:29 AM

Looks awesome Gil!!

CaymanSJF 03-25-2008 11:33 AM

How's the sound system? Is it stock?

HEMI 03-25-2008 01:20 PM

Love the mats.... I would never drive with shoes on...

Stryke 03-25-2008 02:55 PM

Yes, sound is stock, mats are great, tints are illegal, think I answered them all. :)

Wheel Experts 03-25-2008 03:14 PM

man, it looks awesome bro! thanks for the business again

'02_996 03-25-2008 03:23 PM

looks good, are you going to tint the tail lights out?

Stryke 03-25-2008 03:26 PM

Thought about it and decided against.

HZ@RSC 03-25-2008 03:32 PM

Looks good Gil

Alot cushier than the Lambo eh?

Lets get an exhaust on that bad boy now?? Better sound and more HP :-)

NickyBlack 03-25-2008 04:00 PM

You could lower it without slamming it. IMO it would look much better.
As for the mats, I'd make people take off their shoes before entering the car. LOL

fredttx50 03-27-2008 03:23 AM

sweetness!!! Love it!

Man that tint though is dark ;)

I got the lowering module from Herschel. Are you getting one?

CarGuy56 03-27-2008 03:33 AM

not bad...you're ballin with those fur/alligator floor mats haha

SLC4S 03-28-2008 04:14 PM

Those mats are legit... I'd never wear shoes to drive,

Gcalo 03-29-2008 09:30 AM

I do not like black wheels but with that polished/chromed strip (can't tell for sure), they look absolutely great on your car.

I'll have to "watch" how you do with them.

What tires and sizes are you using?
