As far as looks go, its not some image thing really, I just have OCD. Wires that don't run in straight lines or aren't flush against the frame bother me (there is actually an internal tubing for the rear brake, on my 98 Gt Strike). I could never use two different wheels, and my drivetrain has to be a "gruppo" (going IRO to start with, not sure it's a gruppo or not, being American).
Ok I'm done proving my worth to people I'll never meet. But if I DO meet you someday, beware...I have a knife!
I was more talking to the rapgod kid, not dissing you. I wouldn't consider the IRO stuff to be a gruppo, it's nice stuff and all but it's just Taiwanese stuff with logos, not really a gruppo any more than having a dell logo on your tower, monitor, KB, and mouse makes it a matched set, other than the tower's plastic shell they're putting other logos on all that stuff. Actually, all gruppos are just taiwanese stuff with logos, but that's another conversation.
