Id have to see a photoshop but my gut reaction tells me there is no way to make that look good. I agree with the wheel match color though, the subtle difference from the body could look good.

Agreed. It's a nice idea, just think it would be too flashy. I decided against the CF door handles as well. As soon as I get them painted I'll post pics. Should be within the next few weeks.
