Default Black on black, let me know what you guys think

Just picked up some new wheels. I'm getting love from my friends and family but I'd like to know what the forum thinks.

Don't like it. Your car looked better with the LM reps.

I'd at least have a polished lip and black out the window trim.
Probably looks better in person. That photo is too dark. It accentuates the negative, the lack of shiny detail.

The HRE's look good, but I agree, some polished lips would do the wheels more justice and make them stand out. But if that's the look you want, you nailed it. And what rear lip (whole lip kit actually) is that on the black one on Works?
