Eh, to be completely honest, it's a bit much for me. Don't get me wrong, the car looks good, but I think it's a bit overdone. More of a solid black blob than a sleek car, personally.

Please help me resist the urge to be an *** back. The real reason is like I said, I just got finished applying the stripes. Instructions say do not wash car for a week. So I got excited and posted some pics. Thanks for the kind words.

And I had the mufflers ceramic coated at a local shop. Thanks everyone else for the compliments.

Actually the light shines through VERY well at night and well during the day. Like someone else said, it is almost better because there is more of a contrast from black to red when applying brakes ratehr than red to bright red. It works well, trust me. Thanks for the compliment!

Thats ok, I know there will be alot of people that hate black wheels, let alone a completely black car. I accept that and thank you for your honest opinion.

I understand your point about contrast, but I think brightness is more important. It's a mute point since it's your car. BTW, black wheels rock! If anyone wants to trade my silver 18s for black 18s- just send me a PM. I'm not thread jacking- just supporting your opinion on black wheels.
