Pics of black SE with Black 18's

Here a couple of pics of my black se with the factory 18's photoshopped in black. What do you guys think? Should I get them painted black or leave them the factory silver? I cant afford a new set of rims, so I thought this would be a cheap mod.

I like black wheels but I think it looks a little too plain. Maybe if it had a polished lip?

Re: Pics of black SE with Black 18's

I ordered a factory srt8 spoiler. I poped the srt8 emblem out which leaves a blank recessed area. To fill the space I made my own decal that says "Challenger/SE" in the same style of the srt8 emblem. Check out my other thread in the Exterior section for more pics of the custom emblem.

Black wheels look dirty! The contrast looks better IMO.

It'd look sweet "murdered out". With black lugs and darker windows and black tails.

Should have gone with black gloss rims with a chrome lip, or re-paint the whole damn thing flat black.
