Love the MG with Orbit Gray wheels. It's a nice aggressive look. Congrats!

Thanks! I still cant decide how I feel about the orbit grey wheels. Its only been 2 days that I have had the car and atleast 7 or 8 people have already asked my why the wheels match the color of the car.

Lol. They are pretty close in color. Look at the rear diffuser it's pretty close in color too.

The mirror caps stick out like a sore thumb. At some point I'll buy the carbon fiber covers. I'm assuming you went with a US Millworks (or similar) front plate bracket b/c your tow hook cover is missing and ur in MA so I know u have to have a front plate.

Haha yup. Plate is sitting in my trunk since I told the dealer to not drill the holes. I took the cap off to see if the plate mount from my subaru would work but it doesnt. I left the cap off since I ordered a pedal haus mount today. Figured why put it back on if I a, going to just take it off again in a few days.

Thanks, I will be adding these parts over the next year and a half. I wish I could afford to just buy everything out right but finances wont allow that. I have never been more excited about modding a car than I am right now though.

I have a new MG 235i -- was really on the fence about the black grill, but seeing yours I really like it.

I'm also conflicted a bit on my wheels being the color of my car. They've grown on me, but that first week was filled with a ton of "should I or shouldn't I replace these?"

Go for the black grilles...Just like you I was on the fence about them. The chrome grilles look good but the black looks so much more aggressive. Also, aside from the headlights there really isn't any other chrome on our cars.

Ya if you havent gotten the black grills yet you really should. The car looks so much more aggressive with them. They came on the car but im considering changing them out for the black double slat grills.

Wheels though. I still am not digging the wheels pretty much matching the car. Ive been trying to ignore it but its tempting me to just order wheels and put it on my credit card just to get them off the car.

You guys have sold me on the black grills.

Definitely go for the black grills, I love mine.

Another good call on the front end of our cars is getting smoked or color-matched reflectors and ditching the ugly orange ones.

My MPE will be installed Tuesday as well. Took longer than expected to show up to the dealer.

Installed carbon fiber trunk lip that I got from EAS this weekend. Looks so much more aggressive over the oem rear trunk lip. I was a little hesitant on this 3rd party carbon fiber especially since it was so cheap. but it actually looks very good for the price.

I will upload more pics once I can clean the car up a bit

[StarMan]

Man that looks good

[Kenetic]

MPE was installed today. It sounds so amazing. They re used the factory chrome black tips though. Going to order the regular chrome m performance tips this weekend. I will upload an exhaust video this weekend.

Happy revving! Im picking mine up today and i CANT wait!!!!

Also, that spoiler looks amazing, i have my CF spoiler on order too (i got the one with the higher raised mid section)
