...the van will get R230 SL seats first...plus some custom made CF interior panels...once that is finished it will be time for some rims...

On our 2004 Vito has been done (so far):
- comand with Nokia integrated phone, voice recognition, CD changer, Bose soundsystem (not finished yet), TV and an indash DVD player
- multifunctional steering wheel and instrument cluster
- specially made CF dashpanels (first panel is installed, the rest to follow)
- Viano grill

...and soon to be done:
- R230 SL leather seats which are power adjusteable, memory, heated and ortopedic adjusteable
- leather steering wheel
- leather doorpanels
- rims

...and maybe after that:
- parktronic
- lowering

I don't have pictures online yet...

It's okay, it's not like he uses brakes anyway:p...all he has to do is let go of the accelerator and the car stops.

Those 18" wheels are simply exaggerated.

My favourite was the previous 17" SLK style you had.

Steve,
Never mind the critics. That looks totally sweet!

(nice to see you washed the car again ... twice in one year?! ;) :p )

If it wasn't that they cost over $500 I'd seriously be considering them for the Nokian snow tires I'm buying. (heck, I'm still considering them regardless ... in 17" though ... but @ 8.5" wide, for the new Nokian RSi tires, size 235/45R17.)

Does anyone know where these rims can be had from for quite a bit less then the high price Tire Rack has them for? (I think they had them for over $700)
