Well I have seen them all without the centers and lugs done and they look stupid. I am going for the all blacked out look.

Well after having alot of trouble with the lugs not wanting to go into holes. I had to grind down the ends of each lug and grind the center of all 5 lug holes. I was only able to get one on. Anyways here is a sneak peak. Sorry my camera wont take clear pictures tonight. Its really dark.

Thanks, hopefully I get off at a decent time, and I will have time to work on it. It took 1 hr and 45 minutes just to get one wheel on.
