Default New 2020 black wheels

Does anyone have any additional pics of the new OEM black wheels or the price? I’m very tempted to switch mine out.

Or better, painted for $165 per wheel locally. AMHIK. Fixing damaged paint is a million times easier than fixing damaged powdercoat.

I personally like the full Liquid Graphite Finish over the added machined face and lip.

Wish they would sell the exact matching touch up for them.

Is that what you folks refer to as black, or is the black a completely separate option?

No, I think black is a completely separate option available for the 2020 models.

Yeah, never understood why the mirrors and pillars were all in grey ( at least where I come from )
I painted my pillars gloss black to match the diffuser, and installed CF covers on the mirrors. However, the gray still shows below the covers.
