Black wheels and a red lip? Thoughts?

Personally, I think this shit looks bad ass, but I think only certain cars can pull it off. I wouldn't do it, it'd be black/chrome lip for me, but I certainly do think it's hot.



Here it is...

















Lastly are those HRE wheels with ferrari caps or are those ferrari wheels?

I like them on a Ferrari.

In my Modified Luxury and Exotics magazine, they have an article of a Murcielago that is a bright pearlescent blue (picture a combinatin of the 350Z's Daytona Blue and the 2nd Gen TL's Aegean Blue) and it is just like that except of course it's blue and not red. And the lip is so damn big you could put your whole foot in it.

It looks really really good.

almost anything looks good on a ferrari. actually i kinda want to see ugly rims on a ferrari, that would be awsome.

if i saw some seafoam green civic with those rims, i'd probably think they are ugly. Especially if they stick out 6 inches past the fender.

I think it looks awesome, but you can definately only do it on certain cars, like that.

you knbow what would look better, anodized polished lip with red, instead of just painted red. The anodized would look liek a red dyed chrome and still retain the reflective quality.
