More pictures of my black wheels

Here more pictures of my powder coated 214 style 20' wheels.
Depending on how much light they get, sometimes they look totally black, but the close-ups shows the real color which is a very dark gray ( satin gray which has just a little shine) the best color is when they are dirty of brake dust, they get a mate-grey color that looks awesome ( at least for my taste...) my wife and my 2 daughters did not like the results.......

Looks great man! But maybe eliminate the roof rails? You'll get more of a cleaner look.

Get a bit of paint on the fender trim too. It will make the wheels stick out more.

I like the roof and the roof rails! The wheels match really well so it looks great, I'm not a fan of the flower alloy but the paint work looks fantastic well done

Hi, thanks for your comments, the roof rails are original, they came installed from factory, black plastic.

My wheels are originally OEM 214's style, I think the "flower alloy's" wheels you mention are style 215 ?

roof wrap

Was just wondering if you had done the roof wrap, only im trying to get mine done but it seems that the sticking point is removing the rails, did you leave yours on or did they manage to do it around the rails, if they removed the rails, how did they do this. Some people on here say that the caps at the end of the rails come off but i cant work out how.
