    I was gonna say, Phil's guys are wearing Armani? Nice. Toureg looks nice. Did you use Opti Coat on the plastics and trim or something else, Phil?

    pretty sure the guy wearing the armani exchange top is from the film installing company.

    the cut out on the spokes for the lug nuts really takes away from the look of the rims. it makes the entire rim look bad.
