miccycc... yup, those are the ones I bought. I have the blackout as well.... so, is the fit and finish, and the install pretty clean? Any install tips or problems you ran into?

I dig your wheels.

LX,
Fit and finish is fine. What I did is this....
The bezels I put on with the 3M tape they came with, no issue. The center blackout is also meant to be put on with 3M tape. However, I really wanted it to be easily removable, for a change of look, cleaning, etc. So, I installed magnetic tape on top of the 3M tape. This works, but not secure enough for my comfort level. So, I also installed some velcro strips on the blackout, which attaches under the trunk lid. It works great. Only word of caution with this method is this. The high gloss blackout panel is actually a smoke finish. At the right light angle, you can slightly detect the velco on the underside, but could be dealt with by using some sort of backing to add to the blackout effect....I'm going to do a quick search, because I had posted in another thread with pics and instructions. Let me see if I can find it for you....

Mike

Thanks for the compliment on the wheels. I appreciate it.

MIKE,

The blackout bezels will be ordered soon for my silver convertible, great look. Your car color is rapidly becoming my favorite, I love it with your chrome wheels.

Will do on the pics. I don't think that solid chrome wheels will do SATIN SILVER any justice. I think something with the dark silver insert is needed, not all chrome and not something with black in it. I currently am planning to get some GT TAKE-OFF BULLITS for the car.
