Haha the work outlet is pretty cool, huh! I just posted the ones I did because I thought those would most likely be what an 8 owner would go for. I would love to see that exact set of matte bronze xc8's on a BB 8! Would seriously look sick.

If I wasnt working on getting the wife a new car I would definitely be tempted to replace my set with a set.

gonna have to keep a lookout regularly on the work outlet store
