I agree. Also, get your brakes done in red. Done.

Those wheels look very nice, especially the Matte Black, but I vote to keep your wheels, they still look better

White car….. Id go with the Matte Black and re-due you emblems in Matte Black too!!

Even better…. Matte Black powder coat the lip too with a white or gunmetal pinstripe to accentuate the size of the wheel

No Red Calipers !!!!
