Silver or Black Window Trim

Well put the Junction Produce wheels back on this weekend since the car is going to the PA auto & boat show with out club and figured they would be a better fit for the attending crowd.

So my question is do you like the JP wheels better with the chrome window trim or the black window trim or do you think it looks good either way. I already know the green volks look like shit with the chrome trim. So it has me leaning towards doing the black JDM trim since the black trim I dont feel looks bad with the JPs.

A. Chrome Window Trim and Junction Produce Wheels


B. Black Window Trim and Junction Produce Wheels








Also here are two sneak peak shots from my p&s of my shoot I did over break.

IMHO it looks good either way.

Maybe you should try something different, ever thought about half black half silver trim. Perhaps black around the windows and silver along the bottom?

On a sidenote, that cinder block shot gave me a weird feeling in my stomach. Then, I suddenly had the vision of the cinder blocks toppling over onto your car. Weren't you afraid of that happening? I would've been.

Chrome = VIP

if that's the look you're going for with the JP's, then it's an easy one.

well the wheels I am going to be using for 95% of the shows this year are the takata green volks. also once you switch to black jdm trim you cant go back without buying new trim cause there is no safe way to get the trim off without damaging it. right now I am just using black out tape and I am not even going to remove it for this one show cause its like 6 hours worth of time just putting it on cause I am OCD about shit like that.

i voted chrome. but if you're going to be using the green volks for the majority of the shows then leave the trim black. your car definitely doesn't look terrible with the JPs and blacked out trim.

When you say "FAD" do you mean "J.J. FAD"? Meaning they are "Supersonic"!

(I wonder how many people will get that reference?)

i voted black. The EuroR black trim is gloss black so it should suit the jp's better than the matt tape
