Default Just when I thought there was nothing else I could add.....

I thought I was done ....then I stumble on this beauty, at a great deal..... never installed, and as you can see from the background a perfect match for my car.
Black with matching grey and grey stitching, with a little bit of alcantara on the sides.
To find this local and in Canadian dollars is like winning the lottery....

I will try and make time to install it tomorrow.

Looks nice!

Shouldn't be a bad install.. I just gave the wheel on mine a hard pull from side to side after removing the bolt and it popped off (vs. using a puller)

Put on the wheel this morning. Super easy to do. I couldn't have ordered this thing any better for my car.... It looks amazing and feels great too.

WOW! That is very nice and definitely compliments your interior. I always hated the stock wheels on these things

I don't really get what's going on there. I did a super extensive build over past winter and other than one pulley going bad (which I found out has been upgraded since) I haven't had one issue.
I have that "dirty" issue anyways as my door panel handles are that same light grey. I just deal with it.
