Wheels look great! Did you you find them used or buy new?

I love white TA's man! I think a WS6 hood, with maybe a blackbird stripe to help offset some of the white, because it has the tendency to "wash out." I don't think I'd do it in black though...but with those Fikse's, you're off to a right start!

Bought the Fikse's used luckily, not a member on here though. I agree with AbsolutHank, white does wash out, I just didn't know how to label it. I think a hood would break it up nicely, with charcoal blackbird stripes to match.

Here's some inspiration for you...(but to match the CETA, not black)

This first picture is of "TexasVortexx"




Also, what about a Firehawk-type hood?
