Your car is beautiful, and has quite a nice "OEM+" look to it. The wheels arent stock, but they look like they could've been. Usually I think there's a limit with how much a car should be one color, but the black isnt overwhelming. It's certainly the meanest color the 2010+ Mustangs come in!

i just painted my wheels, and my trunk emblem in satin black over the weeken, did all my calipers in bright red, my windows are tinted 20%, front and rear markers are blacked out, and hte kar is Kona Blue... only reason i painted these wheels was to see how the Kona Blue and flat black look, and if i want chrome or black wheels.. i think the car looks rather "mean". some people really like the contrast, and a couple think it looks cheap.. i think it looks pretty good.

hey OP did you clear coat your wheels?? i just used 400 grit sandpaper, black primer, and satin black paint.. i havent clear coated them yet because if i do i think it will make the satin black appear glossy and i dont want that.. isnt there a semi gloss clear coat available??
