lets see it powder coated in the same color as your car. or in the SHU4 grey.

I don't like the black though

Its looks good either way.... Thought the black, or anyother color for that matter would be different from everybody else. I say go for it if you like it.

btw, what kind of rims are those anyway? they look very good on the lude.

I'd go for anthracite, but the black looks good.

I like the way they are. They match your JDM's and your clear corners. The black looks great too. You've got a nice car JDM Lude

I like the silver rims. The black looks good, gunmetal would look awesome, especially when you're driving.
