Model Year: 2006
i decided to wrap my wheels rather than powdercoat them....mostly because i have plans for next spring that requires them to be the original color rather than black/satin.
so.....
I took them apart, wrapped the face, window and reverse side satin black and the lips gloss black. we also took a look at doing matte anthracite grey but the satin looked better.
when i was considering matte anthracite
satin black...the final direction
what do you guys think? now the blue brakes really pop. and yes, im still working on it all. i never have time to work on the car...or drive it for that matter lol but hopefully itll all be put back together soon.

Looks dope. Glad you wrapped them and didn't P.C. them. I prefer the brushed aluminum silver look more, but the darker shade compliments Poison Ivy much better. How's the LCI headlight project coming along?
