carbon fibre fenders?

does any reputable place sell these? i'm kinda thinking they will look a bit too ricey but being that i have a black car maybe they'll blend in nicely. i just dont want to pay to have fiberglass or steel ones painted because usually when you add that to the price its almost the same as getting CF.

not all 03+s have foglights?

i thought all 03+s did (at least here in canada) but i see on here that they're actually not all that common and lots of people have the bumper with no holes...what gives? is this just an early 03 thing?

the 70mph shake that everyone seems to report in their 2gn went away when i bought my aftermarket rims...the reason was that they came with centering hubs or whatever they're called that you pop in and then the wheel spins true.

why do you want to go with that small a rim anyways?? a lot of places that sell winter tires will also throw in steelies for cheap, and that goes from everything from canadian tire to kal tire and what not.
