Finished Wheels...
Taken on a crappy cell phone in a warehouse w/ even crappier lighting  , but it gives a pretty good idea of what they'll look like. The black rings on the center caps are actually black carbon fiber. IMO a day and night from the originals. Now I just need to get the car painted and I'll be set for spring.

They look good. Most wheels don't look good without a polished / silver lip on 'em, but I think those pull it off. Prolly gonna have to see them on the car for final judgement, but as is they definitely look nice.

Flat black just looks like a dirty wheel IMO. Should still consider clearing them, at least its a home made job so there's not much money involved. Better lower your car regardless or it will be a mean 4x4.

LoL. Dont take my kindness for foolishness. I was trying to be a nice guy...I was going to say "for the 3rd time green". Lay the sarcasm on a little thicker next time, hard to pick up over a computer  .
