Well the 720 is only 2 days old so far so she is anything but clean lol. I would like to put a kinda euro style on it but still keep it somewhat stock looking.

Im in search of a 6 lug basket weave for now

The only thing that comes to mind is the 18x8 Rota Formula SUV's.

If you're doing the body work, I'm jealous. Looks top of the line. About the tail lights, try contacting the dealer or use later model lights. :bowrofl:
