I seen you were talking about painting the centers of the wheels black which I think would look great but if you have someone close to you that can do hydro dipping, I would get them dipped in carbon fiber to match the graphics on the car. I think that would tie everything together very well!

Thank you its crazy in the sun at night under the lights is gonna look real nice

235lbs total with the front end and fiberglass front end and doors. i am guessing 119-120 with the frame.
