Looks great in the sun! Except for the tape around the rims, take it off it'd look so nice without it.

Almost there --- tint the windows, tint reverse lights, black chrome your exhaust tips, and remove the tape.

Looks good

The matte black is ok IMO, I dont like the wheels at all. I think it might look better with the chrome blacked out too though.

The wrapped look sick, I just don’t feel the red finish on the wheels you should have leaved them all black.
My 2 cents
