That is a Japanese kit, I think previously sold by AutoCouture in the US.
Very expensive, if still available at all ...

Those are Niche wheels. Pretty cheap nice looking wheels. If I do change from the pentas, i'd put some bbs, hre, or something similar.

It actually is, I saw it as only the front lip advertised on Japanese Yahoo.
However, the manufacturer does not export, so you will need to use a third party (Like Buyee.jp) to actually buy, and ship them.
It worked for me.

Besides, I also see a Arden-copy showing up there from time to time, sometimes as a full kit, sometimes as the front lip only.
There was also a damaged full set (SWB) for sale last week.

I agree they do look impressive, but they are toooo big, and only look good in combination with the stance, and the rather bulky body kit.
Put them on a "normal" x308 and I don't think it will look good at all.

By the way, the above car is on several YouTube video's, impressive looking car.

Yes & w/ the size of those tires I can't imagine that being a comfortable ride.

Was cleaning up my files, and stumbled upon a pic of the set I mentioned earlier, half decent set from Japan for not too much money.
I guess it is for a SWB.
