    Hey Guys,

    As the subject states, trying to figure out if I should get black front rings on my car. Here is how it sits today:

    Black Rings vs. No Black Rings:



    Not sure if this is 'too much' and too dark with the current look of my car. Any input or feedback would be greatly appreciated!


    Thanks,

    I prefer the chrome rings. Otherwise too much dark.

    No, you need the contrast, but you could match the wheels

    Except with silver paint. For the trunk or hatch lid, black contrasts nicely. I have black rings on the back. Black on the grill looks like the rings are being hidden, with a reverse posure effect.
