Thoughts on Comp Gray wheels

Anyone other than me have a 2012 with competition gray wheels. Took a crap shoot in ordering them and love them.

Now if I can just get rid of my old fart fat stomach...............I know eat less and eat veggies, stay away from red meat.

But life is so short...................

I ordered them on my Cyber Gray '10 GS, I like the look. The one thing I don't like is the brake dust, after 50 miles you'll be able to write your name on them, lol.Good part is, it goes with the territory,the brake dust the big brakes and agressive pads generate is a small price to pay for the braking power these cars have.

machine faced/comp grey

I also ordered them (sight unseen since nobody had pictures).

IMO they are nice wheels with certain colors but I personally do not like them with my Crystal Red coupe.

Will be replacing in near future so will have a set for sale.

like them more than i thought i would. My original plan was to get them powder coated in black satin somewhere down the line but they are growing on me.

OP, Your car looks great w/that color combo. I ordered them for my new '12 as well. Had em on my '09, so yeah, I'm partial to cyber gray wheels.

How do I go about viewing the museum camera?

Cheers,

I personally think it needs the Heritage strips and/or the CG headlights to totally blend because the yellow is so bright. That being said I like it.

This is mine...
