I love the look of the exhaust. I wish more people understood the understated look. More is less most of the time. As for the rims, the fronts balance nicely, but the rears look just wrong. The offset looks off, and they just look too small for the car... Not sure exactly what hits me as "off", but it just doesn't balance for me. I love the loss of rotational weight tho, and it's nice to see some 13's that aren't wires.

i looked at it and i guess you must've planted a seed in my head. at first i thought it might have been the super wide-angle lens i used for the pics (which may be partially the cause because it looks fine in person). then i figured out what you were talking about. the rear end raised up a half-inch when i removed the rear seats and the spare. i put the seats back in and it dropped back down. also, i put some 6mm spacers in the back. now the wheels look like a tailored fit! thanks for the feedback.
