Nah Shaz, these don't go with my color at all. These are way too dark for my taste. I do not like a blacked out look. I like some contrast in the car. For example because my car is blue, I want so silver accents to pop out. I am getting them finished in silver with a machined face in high gloss finish. Basically silver rims with machined face.

Yest it is Iridium silver and what I like about it is that the dust, dirt etc.. do not show up on the car, it saves me from washing it every week.
The interior leather is saddle brown and really goes well with the iridium silver.

Hey Joel...nice ride. Quick question. how did you black out the chrome bits on the grill? Specifically, I'm curious about how the "star" was done. Is this a wrap, or was it painted? If it is a wrap, it doesn't look like the entire circle was wrapped, rather, just the chrome was...can you confirm?
Thanks

It's not pained or wrapped, it's this:

Sorry I guess you're right, maybe it's an option when you purchase that grill. I wanted to get it but they won't have stock on the one for the 360 camera until Feb. I guess I'm waiting.

Just godt the chrome trim on the tailgate wrapped in black. Wonder why it doesn't come like this with the night package from the factory...

good news is I can go with a 255/35 295/30 next time to give me a little more meat. Didn’t think that big a tire would have fit but after studying this setup I believe there is room. Surprisingly enough doesn’t ride much different at all compared to stock 19’s. I guess ride quality is subjective and I ride on good roads in North Carolina so take that for what it’s worth

I think it looks good. I often wonder why people on the forum often tend to be so negative. Different opinions are ok, but it shouldn't be so difficult to say it in a nicer way? (Sorry for my bad English).
