              I Like it :up:

              I'd like it better if the raised ribs on the covers were painted same as the "BMW" (in silver/bronze/white/whatever). Not sure how the bronze wheels go with the red, but I like it on the engine. Nice to see something different. trimmed covers were a great idea

                The car is in the shop getting sprayed a semigloss black right now.. That's why I did the wheels that color..

                    I like the color alot, would look better on a black or white car IMO. Love it on the wheel
