Can anyone confirm or shed any more info on this?

I am actually partial to the original wheel son the white, but with the car being satin black, I think these will work better with the overall look, when I take the wrap off after a year or so those will go back, and we still have the option to put these on while it's black to see how they look as well... but we definitely on same page...

Awesome, I plan on doing mine on monday. And side pics showing the full trim and a rear pic further back? I'm going for glossy black on mine as much as possible.

As some of you know the car I purchased was previously a flood car. It had a lingering smell when I first got it and I did several treatments but still had issues and had sore throats driving the car due to something still lingering. I knew that it was likely under the carpet so I ended up taking it to one of the best detailing shops around. They worked about 5 days on the car and ended up stripping the interior and were able to successfully clean everything up. Car smells like a new car now. It was a bit of a hassle, but in the end still ended up saving about 9-10k on this car.

Trying to get rid of a tick/rattle from left of the steering wheel. Spent some time yesterday removing some trim pieces and the under dash panel. Applied some felt in various locations.

About to go for a drive to see if it's any better. Mainly heard at highway speeds and driving over joints in the road.
