I will get a lot of dont do it here but I have made up my mind. I am somewhat old school so this is the way is going to be 1st Rotors
http://www.ocautosports.com/images/samplecolor.jpg
Black ones the slotted part and the Drilled are going to be painted Red to match the calipers so even when the black wears out the red will stay giving it some deepth. Next the Caliper stickers Silver, after that is going to be what people are going to hate me the most, I am Going to PAINT the center part of my wheels To match the Blue on my car, the Lip will stay polished, and last is my crossover to RICE Ferrari center caps
Comments are welcome but the decision is made
You can see the center caps here the yellow ones

You're kidding about those center caps, right?
Super, I'm down to be part of the 'posse' driving up to seek justice for the Elantra community if need be.
Now seriously, everything sounded fine... not bad, even good with the brake modification. Painting the wheels, not bad - not my thing, but not bad. The centercaps though... no.

What kind of crap is that? Caps in sets of three? They wouldn't sell tires like that! Oh, I'm sorry, if you want new tires on all four wheels, you need to buy six. Yeah. Makes sense to me!

I thought the same thing. What a rip off, atleast it's cheap. But damn that's terrible for a company to do that.
Unless they have no trust in their products staying on and the extra two are just incase the others fall off.

ilanpro,
I see your "vision" and it sounds cool to me! I can see this!
Great idea!
Keep up the great work! I have yet to see you make a mistake yet with any mod! It all ties in and will look super IMO!

The rims will look really good as long as you get the same exact color and it's not slightly lighter or darker.
