I think I would have spent a little extra and gone with a new set of rims. Now the "my center caps have been stolen" look on those wheels is even more pronounced. It is unique though!

I'll take my center cap off and see. I'll post pics when I do that

tombstang - mike, whats up witht he hate on the 18 bullits man!?..
lol well DD is ok I guess but if you get something from factory such as the regular bullitts I dont really consider that a rim upgrade.even the DD look stock from far away untill you get up close to notice the lip but even then they still are bullitts.plus everybody and there grand mother has them. Theres alot of stangs on the road with them, and in dealerships now too.....

The Op basically did the same thing as DD do in a way just made the stock rims look a tad diff.

I think they look good, the only thing I'd have done differently is maybe left the outer edge the same color as the center. I like it though.

I think the grey color makes it look like a military vehicle as well...it looks tough, not fancy. That it! the "NON-FANCY COOL LOOK!" I like it!

The reason so many people have bullit wheels on these cars is because they match the overall style of the car perfectly. DD Bullitts may look too stock to some but there is nothing wrong with that and it's a silly reason not to like something. I have yet to find a wheel that looks better than black DD Bullitts (and I'm not biased. I have the stock fanblades. )

$660 just for powdercoating? you could have just bought a set of wheels! [:@]
+1, and they wouldn't have looked like spares
+2, and they would not be painted OEM wheels

But they DO LOOOOK OH SO GOOD.
