    interesting way of doing your wheels... probably because i did them a different way... but they don't look too bad.

    Nice ride, I like the red with black accents. Rear fascia could be painted black, I think that would look mean.

    I wasn't sure about doing that much of the center cap, but I wanted to be different, and create a minimalist look, so I figured what the hell, give it a shot, and if I didn't like it, it's dip, just peel it off. I dig it, and it seems to be asking for a red striping around the lip. Break it up a little. I saw yours, and I like them.

    Actually, I saw someone on here had dipped their fascia, and I thought it might be a viable option. Just not sure how itll hold up to salt, and road beatings...

    They are?! The sun yesterday was hitting them just right that it lit them up like crazy. They're almost black in normal lighting. There is 3 coats of VHT on them.

    Exactly. They do not like dark, at all.

    Stripes look ok but what happened to your reverse bar. It looks all cracked like it wasn't wiped down with alcohol before tint.
