Yes.

Color match the centers to your grey roof line. Polish the barrels.

i'll never be able to look at my propus Cs the same way again.

but in all seriousness, i think they look great on Gen1 wagons.

thanks i think after all the rice i took off of it, it actually looks like a decent 850.


BTW i passed on the PORPUS wheels. 1 looked mint...one has a slight bend on the inside lip, 1 was all curb rashed, and 1...well he said 1 was bent....more like 3 cracks on the inside,a dime sized peace of metal missing from the back, plus a bent outer lip, plus rash, plus bent....so needless to say i passed yet again. i really think im gonna end up having to send mine to get fixed cause im way to picky with rims and im way to cheap to buy Matt's.....lol
