I think it looks AMAZING. I never ever get tired of seeing an F-car with painted TT2s. Keep up the good work.

Pretty darn nice looking!

Those are the best aftermarket wheels for a Bird, IMO.


btw, are those CETA headrests or a custom job? Either way they look cool

Looks good man, that color looks great with NBM, black doesn't work with NBM and I think that color is the best choice. Did you have to clear them too? What if you want them polished again, can you just strip them and repolish em?
