Hey Farai, those wheels look sweet! Let me tell you something, IMO the hyper silver color looks great on white X like X5Dawg or silver like RR's, but on yours those ferric grey's look much better than the hyper's will. As far as smoke lenses go I'm not a fan unless it's a black X because smoke takes that clean shine off from the lenses and the vehicle ends up looking older - duller

I have the $25 smoked side markers from eBay, and am happy with them. They loog good and I have not had any problems with them at all.

Dawg..you started the trend man!! ........and what a great trend it is!!

That is the cool thing about it....those of us that have the 215's.....are spread out pretty well in different area....if Farai comes over the CT state line....I may ask him to borrow the 4.8!! LOL!

I may never come back!

Ok now those look good, I though you were talking about the ones that are all smoke where you can barely see the red. So go for it, and I also bought mine from him so
