Wheel locks?
What are you guys using? Has anyone found any black ones that match stock finish? If not, are the Gorilla lugs the best thing going or is there a better recommendation?

As for matching, buy a good set and get them powder coated.

They look great and are both form and function. Can't go wrong, they're pricey but you get what you pay for!

Are these the ones you're using?
http://www.apex-speed.com/gorilla-wh...k-96643bc.html I see other black Gorilla locks, but they have more of a black chrome finish. Wasn't sure if the "OEM" description is just size/shape or also finish.

Anybody purchased just the chrome gorilla locks? I was thinking about getting these 71641N. Any thoughts? Pictures would be great if anyone has them.
