      I am not sure but I am kind of thinking something with a charcoal/black center and machined lips? Nice car...show me what makes the big cowl hood necessary...

      I could change a couple things and get by with a 2 inch cowl but the motor runs perfect and I like the cowl. Its different from the norm.

      I'll agree. A nice 3 piece wheel with dark centers would look good. A brushed lip would go great with that color. If any of the Intro or ID wheels catch your eye, let me know.

      I have a set of Boze wheels in the "For Sale" forum that looks just like the above picture. They are the "Mesh" style with polished lips and charcoal centers. Give them a look and let me know what you think.

      I still like the bigger cowl but, if everyone liked the same thing then we would all have the same car w/ the same wheels, motor, paint, etc.

      Just my .02

      I understand that you want our opinion but, it really does all boil down to "What do you like?"

      I like a tall cowl hood when it is necessary to cover some nasty motor. Plus it gives a car more of a race bent...which I prefer over a bling look.

      Is there a way to add the Boze/ ZE Mesh wheels to that pic so I can see the difference between the two wheels and different finishes? I really like those wheels in a satin finish.

      I was just looking around and noticed this thread, I like the most recent photoshop job above with the flat silver finish wheels, that way it looks different than the other 1st gens around here.

      BTW did you ever get around to purchasing a set of wheels?
