Default Opinions on "making over" my WideTracks

Hello all. :D

As you can prolly tell from the title, I have a set of 90/120 WideTracks that I got through Nilo (great guy to deal with BTW!) here on SL. I have yet to mount and install them though because I'm sorta stuck at a crossroads.

I don't want to put them on "stock". I have two ideas: either paint them body color (BOP) or have them Permastar-ed (chromed). In this thread, there is a great example of color-matched WideTracks (on a RS1, but you get the idea), as well as a Photoshop of a BOP. That thread got me started in the direction of painting them BOP.

Then, as I began to purchase more accessories for the box (chrome mirrors, LED tails, chrome taillight garnish, chrome handles, and chrome belt moldings), I got to thinking that chrome wheels might look good next to all this other chrome. But, on the other hand, I don't want my box looking like I just won a free shopping spree in the accessory aisle at Auto Zone either.

So, I'm torn as to what to do with these beautiful wheels. Any opinions (good or unfavorable ) are welcome. Thank you!

do you have any pics with all this stuff on your box? i typically hate chrome but if it goes best with what you've got with the car, it might be the way to go. i agree with you on the auto zone comment though. too much of anything is a bad idea.
