New G55 Pix

Just picked up a 2005 G55 for the winter - the last one I owned was an '04 but this one was considerably upgraded by the previous owner (custom interior, stereo, etc...)

Enjoy the pix...

Thanks for the comments. I'm thinking about a little "de-blingification" - perhaps getting rid of the 22" HREs and going with something a little smaller and more subtle. I've also thought about trying to bring it back to more of a 2009 Stock look - new '09 Grill, rims, etc...

I'm really back and forth about it because its really starting to grow on me - I've only had it for a few weeks...

thanks

Jmac

I would give yourself some more time with the vehicle before deciding to make any changes. I also like subtle mods and would generally shy away from 22's, but I do not think the wheels you have look too blingy, probably because of the black centers and the fact that you look to have sufficient side wall height on the tires.

Take your time and don't settle for anything unless it is exactly what you want.
