looks good very stealthy. The bowties look out of place tho being the only silver on the car I think they would look good if you filled them in. Either all black with the red out line or all red. just a thought. I do love them tho and I may look into getting a set of those for winter wheels and do this to them.

Plasti dipped is amazing. I have had it on my rims for a while now ( with spray paint over the dip ) and it still looks amazingly good.

Yeah I'm still not sure what to do with the bowties. I'll leave them as they are now and see if they grow on me, if not, then maybe all red... or perhaps all black with a thicker red outline. Hmmm.
