Pics of my Motegi SP5s all blacked out!!

Since nobody will trade me im thinking of trying something diff with the wheels and having the lips powder coated black. What do you think? Personally I love it, I think they look nice.

I am partial to the chrome ring with black centers with wheels. But it is entirely up to you. It will look good either way.

I like it better with the chrome ring. I think it works better with the chrome mirror caps and door handles.

I'd say go all black, or leave em they is.

What he said ^^^^ about it going with the mirrors and handles. it does look good and I like the all black idea but I think that style of wheel looks better with the chrome lip.

The chrome that you see in the pics will all be black. Handles should be next week.

I'm usually on board with preferring the chrome lip. In this instance, however, I think the total blackout looks badazz. Maybe with a fine stripe of contrasting color(red?).
