Photoshoot: HFP wheels + Blacked out Grill + 03 inserts
172,xxx miles.

Decided to do an updating photoshoot on this overcast day, right before a storm. Blacked out the grill with some trim brite tape, I had the chrome around the windows taped but after a year it started coming off so I took it off. Put in the 03' inserts too cause my one roadlamp broke. Enjoy.
















Wasn't sure if the CL was too fat or not, drove in slowly

Looks good! The HFP wheels look really nice with your car.

I like the HFPs. Not really feeling the black grille though. I think color matched would be better.

I actually like the chrome trim on SSM CLs. Maybe if the wings on the grille were still chrome?

Nice pictures! You got some good angles. Wheels look pretty good. I personally don't know what finish to go with when I do get wheels for my SSM CL-S.

Well, there aren't very many bad wheel color choices for an SSM.

Chrome pieces got covered up with blackout tape.

Haha well I guess that's my problem. I can't decide which one I like the most.

In that case, do bronze.

Thats a biased opinion, obviously.
