if those are the 18" bullitts that are bein shipped with the '06 then im a bit disappointed.. for polished rims they are too shiny.. also no lip. think i like the tirerack ones better.

Typically bullitt rims don't do a great job of visually filling the wheelwell since they have thin spokes. The fanblades do a better job of this as the spokes are very chunky. That may be why the gap, empty space is more pronounced.
Here's what I mean....

I think they are a nice design and more 3D than the most aftermarket ones with a lip. The polish looks okay to me but I'd have to see them in person.

Here you go!
Man, I'm tempted to wake up early and see your car and the new Bullitts, even if my own car is supposed to come in next week. Haha. Maybe I'll see you there and take some pictures! That ride back home will be a sweet one.

i'm glad i saw those pictures. Now I don't feel so bad about the 18" bullits not being available until late 2005. The fanblades do look better

Not bad, but the large lip makes the bullitt wheel pattern look small. Just doesn't seem to fit the tire and wheel well as good as the fanblades. The blades extend out to the circumference of the wheel itself and look better IMO.
I think those bullitts look better off the car than on it. Seems like it would need lowering and/or a lower profile tire to achieve best results.
