Tidy car mate.
What are your plans for it?
I would do the following:
- Smoked headlights
- Smoked fog lights
- Get the alloys sprayed anthracite grey
- Remove the tints

Brake calipers and pads look great  . I think painting the alloys will make a big difference though

using drilled a grooved brakes on a dailys not always best way forward, actuali its not at all. they wont get hot enough to work proply so may glaze up, you would be alot better fitting some 266mm brakes with some good pads and disks, just vented disks not drilled grooved, think you will see alot better improvment, all imo like.
