Lol I agree where did you even find a can of paint that color for six buxks. Usually it's on the clearance rack for three lol. Rims are really hot though black rims aren't old.

Look is old? Black wheels on any car is old,so are black wheels with red stripes,as with any wheel combo that looks half way decent.They are ALL old.Reason being most like that certain look,which gives that combo the "old and out dated" title.If it was ugly,then it would never reach the "old" look title..lol

wheels look great engine cover doesnt match anything but if you like it thats all that matters! paint your break calipers in that blue or something????? no never mind!

How have you been Ling? I need your expertise in photography. My wife just got me a Nikon D40x SLR camera for Christmas. I wanted to get some better pics of my car but I am still learning all the tricks. I had the camera in fine mod, the close ups of the wheels are clear but the car pics are a bit watery looking.
Can you post up an example of the car pics that are watery?

The wheels do look great, I really like them...... but, like many here have pointed out, the engine cover and the air boxes paint is just not happening 
Not for me....

Wheels and ride height look great, but I would color match the wheel lips to the car color (silver) or go stainless or polished lips. Those color choices would pop more and show the detail of the wheels better.

I like the wheels and think they would look great on a black car.
The blue EC is too bright and light - go dark or metallic if CF is not on the agenda.
