hmmm i dunno. I would have to go gloss black. but im not really diggin that one. Maybe its the high spoiler. im on the IROC one. Either way, nice ride, just not diggin the wheels. I was also thinking about doing the spokes black and leaving the barrels and lip chrome.
EDIT: Thanks a ton for getting those pics grip. saved me a ton of time searching!
