Looks great, (Off-Topic) what grill is that? I love the rims but IMO, I think I'd go with black lugs.

That looks great, I think I will also get the yellow vinyl kit for my fogs even though I have yellow 9006 bulbs, they are not yellow enough. Those rims make the car.

I had to customize the fitment of the exhaust because it would slightly touch the kit. it's Very close.

it's my version of the $300 grills... they're way too overpriced IMO..

The only thing about that is, with the TRACK wheels the finish is uniform over the entire surface of the wheel, so there is no contrasting lip finish. I don't think the look would be as good with a entirely black wheel on this particular car. Johung kinda has a luxury sport look going on with his car.

Plus we wanted to showcase the design of the wheel and its so hard to do that with the darker finishes.

Does that mean if you want for example, an anthracite TE-5, the WHOLE rim would have to be painted (even the lip) ? Any pics of the TE-5's on customers cars?

Thanks!

Yes unfortunately that is the case. The wheels are not painted, though, they are powdercoated. Cant have it all I guess! lol

No TE-5 pics yet.
