So do you have any plans for performance mods or are you just happy to make it look the way you want ?

See 'haro', it's not the end of the world. People both like it and don't. It has given someone an opinion for their car. So don't try and slander me for asking a simple question

It all comes down to personal taste.
If he likes it, that's all that matters

I took a pciture of your car as it was simply accesible, and no it itsn't a 'go' at your car alone. It is to see peoples opinions on this sort of thing to a whole category of car. Simple constructive criticism I can accept bags in utes (work utes that need to be raised to carry a load) or old skool yank tanks. That's it. Saw them in a Beamer outside of work a couple weeks ago, I lauged when I saw it... He was probably proud as punch with them. You need to realize no one will think anything is better than their car. I mentioned before that I had SHYXR as my wallpaper on the computer. Would I swap cars? No, Why? Because I BELIEVE mine is better. You know where I work, and at that place the only persons car I haven't ripped on is the 3IC. Why? Because even though it is old and the paint isn't so great, it is the nicest example of an XF I have ever seen. Just so you know aswell, don't be surprised if you get defected for tinted tail lights. They are illegal. That's why I took mine off

But sticking on some bigger wheels doesn't really scream 'performance' to me. If anything, it will actually be slower (due to extra weight). But as long as the owner likes their car, that's all that matters. It doesn't matter what you do, there will always be haters.
