Looks like its covered in brake dust but its not bad. You should also paint the calipers black to complete the look.

I think it would have looked better gloss black.

The quality looks good, but like Ant said, your car is gloss black and the wheels are flatte black. So it does not go together at all. Now if you add some gloss accents to the wheels, it may make it blend in better.

I agree with a lot of the comments. Should've kept them chrome or painted them gloss black.

P.S. this is coming from a fellow LSJ owner. Also someone who just traded wheels with someone to get a set of gloss black stock wheels.

Not sure if I like the chrome more or not. It doesn't look bad, I'm just not sure if it looks good. You def. need to lower it to complete the look though.

this is true. but most people who dont paint like us just dont know about chipping/fading.

i like the black but i think its a bit much on a black car, there is no contrast. maybe a red stripe or something to break up all that black. Overall its not bad

I personally liked the polished looked better. I know how you feel though. Every once in a while you gotta change it up. Post more pics.
