Are the blue lugnuts and valve cap stems too much?

I re-dipped my wheels with gunmetal grey.......5 coats of flat black, 4coats of metallic gunmetal grey and 3 coats of Glossifier. 

I’m 58 years old on the outside and about 12 years old on the inside.

My wife is like “whatever”....as long as you’re happy.

Blue lug nuts make me happy :-)

Need a close-up of the rim but it looks good.

I have red ones on my z. Ignore the terrible thing I did to my car. I have since apologized to her profusely.

I thought the trash can was a big spoiler.

Now I think it needs a big spoiler. I’m talking STi-levels here. Do it.

I thought about adding a *tasteful* spoiler, but it would probably interfere with my bike rack.

Can’t have that :-)

I like the wheels dipped with blue lugs. What I’m not a fan of is the pinstripe which I’m assuming the dealer added.


I dipped the wheels on my 2017 Elantra purple. Pretty pleased about it

Think the center cap makes it too much blue but not by much, the graphite color contrasts well with the lugnuts though

I like it. If the valve stem caps are aluminum, just remember to loosen and re-tighten them every once in a while. Aluminum caps tend to weld themselves to the threads on the valve stem if left still too long.

I put the pinstripe on myself.......it looked better when I had the wheels dipped in gold.

I might take the gold pinstripe off and do a silver one.
