It used to be the term "triple black" but now with black wheels it's "quad black"

For some reason -- and maybe I'm an old fuddy duddy -- but I can't get into black wheels.

But, each to their own!

I really agree on black wheels.

Think the chrome on the rear end is very ghetto. Don

What Chrome? That's just a reflection from what I see.

I'm still trying to figure out how he did the Exhaust Pipes in Black.

Could be but the rest of the nearby surfaces on the car look black not reflective. If I’m in error (won’t be the first time), I extend my apologies to the OP. Don

Don, it is tricky. I had to do a double take myself after I saw your original Post. The eyes are getting old just like the rest of me.

OP... looks great.

Questions...

1. What are those wheels... they look like HRE's to me.
2. How did you black out the exhaust?
3. What did you use on the front grille?

Where did you get the Red overlay for the Flag Emblems?

Thanks...

Very nice! I too want to know what wheels those are. Also, did you paint the Emblems or buy they that way? Also curious what you did to those exhaust tips to black them out like that?

Curious to hear your thoughts on the 13 vs. 14?
