Wheels with Carbon Fiber finish
Has anyone seen or used any wheels with a carbon fiber finish. My SL65 has a fair amount of Carbon Fiber trim on the interior and may gain more on the exterior in the near future. I see Savini (maybe there are others) offers their wheels with a carbon fiber finish but have never seen them in person. Does anyone have any experience with them. Looks? Durability?

I have seen them before, but I think it is ghey looking. Go buy some Dymags if you want some real cf on your wheels (but don't really because I don't think they would be a good choice for a heavy car like an SL).
