Well some of you may have seen previous pictures of my car with flat black wheels. I wasn't too crazy about them so decided to go with a dark gray instead. They really sparkle in the sun. Since I was taking the wheels off, it was a perfect time to paint the calipers.

Also newly installed are vinyl overlays on the turn signals from www.Bluebatmobile.com. It's much nicer not having to look at the orange turnsignals all the time.

I also am just posting the first picture of my engine bay with the midwestern auto plenum cover.

I can't seem to add any pictures to this so please see the links...

I like the grey! Very nice looking. I'm one of the few people that actually likes the upgrade wheels as they come, better than bullits or anything else. Black or grey looks awesome though... I'm just not sure if it'd work on a white car.

If you're not sure about the black wheels on a white car, take a look at the pics in my sig. Personally I like the way they blend with all the black trim.

(sorry to highjack the thread, just trying to be helpful )

That looks really good. I tried going to bluebatmobile.com but it didn't work. I really want to get those tinted turn signals!

Man, those wheels look good. Best modified stock wheels I've seen so far.

Man I really like those. I have tried in the past at doing that type of thing but never been too successful. Someone one should do somekind of exchange like the chrome exchange guys on ebay are doing.
