Actually, they're not pure black. They're more like gunmetal-ish. In certain shots they reflect the light completely. I don't mind it too much. Adds a tad of contrast.

Wow the difference is massive! I can barely recognize them if I saw them spinning in the streets. Looks really unique.

Too subtle for my taste but they are deadly stealth looking.

getting rid of the OEM style hood?! I always thought the rotor was the best part about it.
here's the autobahn hood for those who haven't seen it: http://www.japanparts.com/images/Ima...base=1&no=4070


Now back to the Volks...

do not bulge the hood, I've always thought that clashes with the lines of most vehicles.

Really? I think it make the MS6 look twice as intimidating,,, the logic behind it, if it were parked next to a MS6 and an MS3 it would look like Mazda made a MS8 that fit into the MS design language...

Thanks guys, at first I was disappointed at the quality of the Autobahn vents, but got over it rather quickly.
