    Those are iding wheels out of Japan. He also made the rear bumper, center exhaust and slightly different front bumper with driving light behind the front grill.

    Great wheels but that bumper and rear panel are tough to swallow.

    This is going to sound funny coming from me (especially for those who know me...)

    I do not feel that the 355 is a car that should be modified - beyond wheels, possibly seats a subtle stereo and a few small items, any sort of body kit or aftermarket grills etc. just serve to cheapen and bastardize a beautiful car - I am thinking maybe, and I mean MAYBE a front lip spoiler may look good - but that is about it - and it better be subtle.

    I can't believe I just said that.

    The thing about these rims is they sort of look like the stock rims which is a major plus.

    I love those rims.

    I also believe the 355 is best with stock body. Any modification would ruin a perfect body from the factory.

    While I agree with the majority of members that the 355 already looks great and why bother taking a chance and modifiying something that you could end up ruining... but you've got to hand it to the creator of this rear bumper, grille and exhaust modification that it sure is interesting to look at, and visually doesn't ruin much if anything at all. Of course this is in my opinion.

    However, if I were doing any modification, I'd want to be sure I would retain all the old original bits and could make the car "stock" again if these mods didn't live up to my expectation.

    It's always a risk doing mods, but in this case I don't think anything was lost at all. It's just different.

    Oh yes...I do like the wheels too!

    These wheels are almost (if not) identicle to Breyton Inspiration wheels which were available for the BMW E46 range back from about 2000 onwards, I would guess these could be a set with hub adaptors being used to fit the 355........just a thought

    Hey, I kinda' like the rear panel - it follows the motif of the grill-work on the rear deck (hate the bumper, lower valence, and elevated spoiler = Ricer). :D


    Absolutely. Non-chrome, 3 piece Speedlines. Yum.

    I think the Tuning Company in Japan is called Indy-Power or something like that.

    I was closed to buy on of their Exhaust on Ebay.
