Nice car but not my cup of tea when it comes to the wheels. Blends in with the car too much.

Lovely motor mate. However (and this is only my opinion), I'd change the wheels to anthracite or maybe white. Lower it to get rid of some of the gap between wheels and arches and maybe go for some slightly more discreet flaps in black. Tint the windows and swap the rear lights for blobeye items. Maybe go for two stiffies (less is more) and swap the front plate for a small one and lose th eyebrows.
