rims look OK, would be better on a darker car. and I agree about losing the chrome gas cap.

Hmmmm thanks for the feedback. It was ex-demo so came with all the shiny bits. I like 'em, but each to their own. XDEEEDUBBX perhaps I should replace them with carbon ones? j/k

Any colour suggestions for the calipers?

Yah, looks like these wheels come in different finishes...gold, white, black, silver...but can't find pricing anywhere. One guy was selling a silver set on a Ford Forum for 3800.
