Okay, you twisted my arm , here is a picture of your actual car. If anyone else want's to see their car with these wheels, let me know, it's not difficult to do.

Wow. Ok, thanks. That IS my car... hummm

Don't like that shade of grey. Probably black would look better.

Now put the RoJa Formula 5 rims on it, so I can compare...

Thanks Conceyted. That does really help...

I don't like it. It makes the door handle stand out too much.... for my taste.

I will keep researching.

The OE 18's are in the back and didnt want to pull them out...

so , I took an LMGT4 out side...

Lets just say... As soon as I scrape up my Black LMGT4's they are going to turn GunMetal!
Jason - earlier in the thread you showed the LMGT4 in Gunmetal and it had the Nismo decal. This picture it doesn't have the decal - how do you remove? Thanks.

The NISMO Decal on the wheels is a sticker on on the colors...

The one I originally Pictured is of our floor model... The set of 4 wheels I have to ship to a customer will not have the stickers stuck on to the wheels to give them the option of putting them on or not...

The floor model wheel is now bolted up in our display...

Lexan, is that powdercoat or paint, if it's powdercoat, what did you do to match the color on the center caps...spray paint, body shop? I want mine to match perfect, and couldn't find a spray paint that matches the color of the powdercoat exactly.
