Seeing as how you know rich (volkracingmaxima) and he was sponsored by Axis, why not ask him for a contact and maybe you could hit them up for a ::cough:: sponsorship ::cough:: or they can at least put you in contact with someone who could give you a decent deal.

I've always loved the Subzeros

But I know that's not everyone's thing.

I think something like this in gunmetal would look good too

Maxed Up is selling these custom powder coated EVO 5's for 1200 with tires! Nice, but HEAVY. I think they weigh like 27 lbs a piece w/o tires. ( I know that everyone is jumping on this ban wagon, and getting the evos... but they doo look NICE)

I vote GUNMETAL.
