Personally not feeling it... but if you're happy with them, go for it. Just not my shade of purple.

I think they'd look better on a BSP or a SW, but if you like it then go for it.

im not sure what to do bout the center caps yet cause they keep freaken breaking off. For now im probably just go without them. I herd that the dealer charges like $45 each center cap so idk yet. As for the clear coat ill probably just put on one or two more coats to get a little more shine and better protection.
