wheels look much better now. Good job. If your interior was black the white pieces would have worked, but still good effort. Nice to see somebody doing something alittle different.

I give you props on what you did, but I would vote, fail on both the rims AND the white trim. A+ on the effort for sure! If you wanted different, I would have switched the color on what you did. Pearl White on the rims and black on the wood trim. You have it in reverse, IMO. The reason the white wood grain looks off is because the vents, door handles, and the middle console are black. So you have two different browns, black, AND white. Since the wood grain is the only thing that's white, it looks like it's awkward. Plus I think the window button area has the "woodgrain" sticker on it still. Don't let anyone on the forum change your vision, keep it up!! We need more innovation, and wether or not I or anyone else agrees with you, we need you to keep it up.

Too much beige, and I would've left the wheels silver, or done something unique, everyone has black wheels these days...Otherwise, it looks very nice!

I like the white interior just because it's unique. Everyone has wood grain, black, or CF... yawn :P
