Default New mirrors and foose 20's

Well got a few mods set up before the winter. Sure, maybe the wrong time to do it but really is doing mods ever the wrong time?
The mirrors are off a 2011 and I did the wheels myself.

looks good, just curious i'm not a huge fan normally of painted rims(other than black) but have you thought of taking it 1 step further and maybe putting some blue in the rims to match the color combo with the stripes? Not sure how it would look or what you could do but its a thought

Wonder how quickly those rims will get black with brake dust.

Looks good though, really liking the mirrors

I've had white wheels on the car since I bought it. My stockers were done white 3 years ago. The break dust isn't bad really. Just like any other ride you just gotta keep it clean, I don't think I'll be hitting any road courses thou.

Thanks alot on the feedback, I apperciate the comments.

True, I was just thinking how dirty mine get, I'd imagine white would be much tougher. Maybe it's also partially due to the pads

Oh also, when did you get that stars and stripes pony? I have been looking everywhere for one, but apparently they stopped making them???

I likke the mirrors how easy/hard was it to match them up. I love to do that on mine. Hate the stock ones.
