Black cars must have black lugs too!!!

Yes I know...I know...thread is worthless without pics. I just installed the Gorilla brand lugs part #96643BC 14mm x 1.50. Great mod to make your car with black wheels look "right". It is amazing how perfect they look in comparison to the stock chrome lugs. Only possible annoyance is that all lugs use the locking key.

Looks good dirishboy. Where did you get your lugs from and who makes them?

Now if they only used black lead weights as well. It kills me to have beautiful black RIMS with these ugly silver lead tire weights on them....
