Car customization is all about personalization. Your car tells a lot about you and yours obviously says that you like to get looks, either good or bad, they're still looks. And the heavy bass, def. gets people's attention when you pull up.
Me, I like people to notice my car but also have enough power to blow a lot of cars away. And have the luxury to chill in leather seats, listen to some Daft Punk, and blaze.

I like it, I guess it depends on the style on rims to make the car look good but its all on what you like. Its my first seeing a gp on 22's and it doesn't look that bad althought I would not do it because I like a smooth ride and also love a lot of bass. Good luck with everything.

Unique is good.
I wouldn't be terribly worried about the drivetrain if you're gentle with her.

most of us "turn our own wrench", but the tranny is a totally different ballgame.
