I say go for it.

It would look good with the plat tint.

I'm personally not a big fan of chrome. If you like the look, then I say go for it ... but if it matters, I love the way your car looks right now.

Later,

I am with the mod on this one. I think the chrome would look good on the black paint with the shiny(plat) tint

if you are going for the PIMP look... go with chrome... if you are going for the clean look than keep as is... it's all a matter of opinion... so if you are asking for mine... i say keep as is i like the clean yet raw look... but then again... if you are want to be pimpin' than got to go chrome bro hands down...

In my opinion, Platinum tint actually matches more w/ the silver wheels as it is already, since its not really a mirror looking...

It's just I think chrome momo's on super black paint would look really nice but then again, Im afraid I will lose that clean look!

if i were you, i would keep them the way they are...i think chrome will take some of the beauty away from what you already have...right now, your car looks really sweet...wouldn't want anything to be ruined by a little experiment into chrome...i say you stick with the beauty you have right now

I say stay with the stock silver....it's the difference between the "sporty" look and the "luxury-pimp" look. The silver is very clean looking...the chrome will look uneven and chaotic.....I think...

please dont do it

I definitely wouldn't chrome those wheels. Momo arrows are great looking wheels and it would make them cry to be chromed. No way to the chrome.....just my opinion

I second that! The HIDs will add more to the appearance of your car than the chrome will imho. I don't like chrome on any color but black, but your wheels look great as is. I thought you were out of money anyway Stan The only drawback to the HIDs is they don't have any highbeams!

Belive it or not, after changing out my suspension, I went ahead and took my car for an aligment, not every place wanted to do an alignment on a lowered car. So if you need to, let me know & I'll let you know who's specialized in that in Colony. They're distributor for KYB as well. And what they told me, is that after they checked my car, that I didn't need any alignment. It was hard to belive but it drives straight as an arrow!

Don't mess w/ perfection!

I like the Momo Arrows in silver on your car. Take a pass on the chrome. Your ride looks T-I-G-H-T, TIGHT! (as is)

CHROME THEM. They're heavy enough as it is. A little chrome won't make any difference on da' MOMO's.

Yeah, leave off the chrome. Keep it silver. I wish my car looked as sick as yours. Very clean and slick. Go for some random performance mod, hids, handling, or something else if you got $$$ burnin a hole in your pocket.. or better yet, give it to a fellow super black/black 4th gen to get mods to look more like that!

Keep your car the way it is man...chrome will ruin the look your car has now - I wouldn't change a thing! BTW - If you ever want to sell, make sure you let me know!

Leave your car as is cuz it is flawless. I think chrome will interupt the clean look it has now. Your car looks nice and as others have mention, put it in performance mods.
