Thanks so much guys. They look much better in person. The funny thing about the SL's is that they aren't really gun metal. They are black at night, bronze-ish during the day, and gun metal if not black or bronze lol. They look great w/o te decal as well.

Look great! What are you dropped with?

My 19x11 rears finally made it to the states, so my SLs will be ready for install this week when they get here. Just picked up my 305/30/19 rears. Im getting anxious.

Send me a PM in a few weeks if you want to talk about center caps. As soon as I test fit my wheels this weekend and decide if I want to space them at all, I am going to machine some centercaps on the CNC here... or if I want to space out, a thin spacer/cap combo part to bring it out a few MM if needed. I figure on making a few sets for the370z members.

I know of at least 5 as of right now.

EDIT: let me be more specific. 5 who either have them or have them on order.

They are still rare and they are beautiful. I wish I had a set, but I got a different set of volks coming in tomorrow...so I'm not exactly envious haha.

Car looks very nice. I am just not sold on the colour of the SL's tho. I was seriously considering a set myself but the colour does nothing for me, just too plain of a finish.

A lot of people seem to disagree with that opinion tho, glad you're happy with your wheels..

FL 4Motion · 12-28-2010, 06:57 PM

wow, that looks fantastic. Your car sits perfect imo in those pics.

Nice car to compliment your nice house.

I think you might be able to custom order the color and finish. The wait will be many months.

That is the MOST beautiful Z one of my favorites the lip is done well...!

phunk · 12-28-2010, 07:50 PM

The SLs have machined lip and center area, with painted spokes... and then the painted spokes and machined lip have a tinted clear coat on them.

They are very... iridescent (if thats the proper word), the lighting has a strong impact on their shade/color. with direct lighting they can almost get to silver, and indirect light they can look just about black.... and of course anything in between. some angles reflects very light color back at me with the surfaces facing me, and the surfacing facing other directions fade to almost black. its a lot more indepth in person than it is in photos.

the last week i have been going back and forth on the idea of having a matte clear coat sprayed over might before putting the tires on.
