Agreed, that looks amazing. Are you going to do some Day 2 wheels or keep the poverty caps and steelies?

Are you going to put the insert in the scoop or leave it as is? Looks great by the way.

Satin black would be OK or find someone that is good with an airbrush and duplicate the chrome insert with paint. TAZ
