ForjWorks gave us the heads up that their Nissan Cube eyelids are ready for distribution.  Bean Garage is among the first to sell these high quality eyelids.  They are made of a thick polycarbonate material, fitting snugly to the contours of the head lights.  A great thing about them is the pre-painted option, where they match the color of your Cube already.  This saves a lot of hassle and trouble, along with the easy installation.  Check out these eyelids on the ATI x Bean Garage Mobile U Cube!

SSR makes a variety of timeless wheels, using their Semi-Solid Forging process for a strong, lightweight wheel.  Made in Japan, SSR has a long history of designing and manufacturing wheels since 1971, with active involvement in motorsports such as JGTC, Time Attack, and Drift series.  SSR is also beginning to develop Hybrid spec wheels for the best combination of looks and better gas mileage.
