New Motegi wheels
#14
I really like the Motegis. First time I've used them on any of my vehicles. The tire guy I use is impressed as well. He commented that on most aftermarket wheels, there is some play in the hub cutouts unless you go with a high end, (READ: high priced) wheel like Avanti, or even custom cut wheel. He said that the Motegis slipped on almost like they were factory, no play around the hub.

You mentioned "blacking out" the rest of your chrome. How are you thinking of doing it??? I had been trying to find someone that does "black chrome" for about 2 months, without luck. If you find someone, let me know. Maybe we can work a package deal (I'll drive up from AZ.)
Oh, I'm speaking of the black chrome that is applied in the same method as the "gold" packages. I believe it is called brush plating. The chrome accessories would not need to be removed from the car.
One last comment...Your car looks WICKED !!! in a good way.

I was thinking more along the lines of a gloss black paint. However, if you can't find someone to do the black chrome and want to give it a go yourself, try:

I had researched "doing it yourself" and did find that company and others that provide the materials with technical assistance. I'm more in the direction of having someone do it....but I might think harder about the DIY method.
Again thanks
