Which direction you gonna go on the wheels? I haven't seen any like these blacked out. I did see a set of V2 wheels done with a krinkle black that I LOVE....Mine are satin gunmetal stockers.

Main reason i didn't get a black car, kinda nice not having to give it a bath at least once a week. Especially with our dust storms.

Mine are a textured satin black, they look pretty good. They do turn brown tho as said above. Just get a good neutral wheel cleaner and a brush, hit the wheels and calipers while ur there, done deal.

i'd be interested to see this, i don't think the flat or satin looks good unless it's pre-72 or you're just straight up gansta, but too each his own. good luck and you'll def be one of a kind

Do the satin black!!!! I've been thinking of doing the same thing myself! I'm waiting on a new replacement from CCW right now and I'm thinking I won't even put it on right away. I'll find a local PC shop over the winter and have it done then...

Yeah mine has the usual road chips and a little bruise on the front and rear bumper covers. I've been saying if I ever have an accident that justifies painting over 25% of the car she's going satin black.
