Regular silver aluminum but blue would accent nicely.

do the chrome(silver) the AEM logo is already red with the yellow text.
Blue would make it start looking like a toy. plus since your strut bar is chrome i think it would match nicely.

It used to be chrome. I sprayed some engine degreaser on it and forgot to wipe it off. Considering the high temps of the STB sometimes I wonder if it will come off. Any ideas?

well you could clean your engine bay before the install. but ive never had any flaking or an problems with the finish on the chrome. But its your car you decide.

ive been checking out a few wheels lately. and compairing sizes. Are you happy with the look of the 18x7.5? I was honestly looking into 19's but for the 1" difference in size im not really wanting to spend $100+ per wheel.

I love my 18x7.5's. Especially with the 225/40 tire. No rim poking out, no rubbing. They're perfect.
