Maybe one of the reason they look so nice is they only come in 22" and 24"! I was looking for some 19".

Looks nice, but I'd take Starfire Pearl over that any day.

I would trade my car for this color. Whoever said it would be a hard color to mod has to be crazy. It would have great contrast with black elements. Chrome would be a bit difficult. Definitely Unique, I like it! Like JoeZ said, those signals on the mirrors look good smoked. This color has great potential grasshopper!

There you go, I just saw the black face so I thought it was the HF213R without even double checking what your wrote.

It wouldn't be my top pick for color, but doesn't look that bad. Certainly different from all the others around here.
