Much better! Very sharp.
What did they charge you to do that if you don't mind my asking.

The only reason I went here was bcuz they offer same day service. Drop her off in the morning, & picked her up at the end of the day. The price also included PC lug nuts & center cap (other places were quoting $25/each center cap....uhh, that's highway robbery). It also included dismounting, remounting tires & balancing. Other shops wanted wheels w/o tires, and 5-6 days to finish. Maybe the 5-6 days is better for QC??

Love the standard F Sport wheels that my 2013 came with. Looking for a set of wheels for winter tires and found some of the Crafted Line black wheels. Anyone seen a Matador Red LS with black wheels? Can't find a single pic of red with black wheels Considering buying these or waiting for the un-black ones. Anyone have a pic?

Reviving a half decade old thread…
I wasn’t feeling the grey PC wheels anymore (& I really don’t want to go 21-22” wheels, riding on rubber bands!), so decided to make a change to semi gloss black powder coat.
I personally like the look of all black wheels with the traditional polished lug nuts.
BUT in this case, I think if I were to put back on the polished nuts, it’ll take away the focal point of the rotors & calipers.
BTW, car is on Data System fronts 4; rears 3
I know it’s a personal preference, but just curious what your thoughts on black wheels with polished nuts vs. blacked out?
Data System on “normal” mode.

I like the black look as well but I wish that cheesy wide strip of plastic chrome on the sides could be taken off these cars.
I don't think the lugnutz colour matters one way or another, black or polished would work for me except the polished wheel lock is homely
