I'm 50/50. Love everything but the flame and the wheels. Would look better without the flame and with the old wheels but the hood and grille look killer.

I'm probably in the minority here, but I think the flames look cool. I do agree that the old rims looked better.

Still, much better overall!

its very subtle, i like it. maybe think about making the bowtie on the grill the same color as the flame stripes...but it looks good the way it is. i just think it would look more clean with less colors..

Hood and grille are improvements, previous wheels were better IMO and I am not a fan of flames.

slp grille is a great addition, I also like the flames, they are subtle enough to look good. Although I do like the old ZO6 wheels more than the ones you have on now......
