I wish I had better pictures at the moment. Unfortunately he moved to Houston before I could get better pics of his car. I love your finish with this wheel, although I like the black polish too on this wheels. And I normally don't like black polish.

I was going to wait until after coils to post good pics, but I'll post these for now.
Pepos, your car pulls it off well in Gunmetal
