I like the styling of the third wheel but not so much the color combo shown in the pic. Trying to picture the color scheme you have in mind and I think it'll look good. The 2nd one is cool but will be a pain in the ass to clean. And not really feeling the 1st one.

thanks for your replys guys....I like the 1st because of the convex curve, they are also made by asanti and I can can get custom sized lips
i`m trying to get at least 5 or 6 in the rear.....the middle set are like the kind I had on the E39 and were really tough to keep clean

I don't really like any of them....but if I had to pick, I'd go with #3. Number 1 is out of the question.
