LOL. Personally, I never saw the RS4 mirrors as being worth the cost

Default And that's not bad, now make the brakes actually red :) and I don't think black is bad on cactus

Here is why

A) the black wheels makes your eyes focus on the Green (car color), not the wheels, so the paint pops

B) The silver wheels, while very attractive and doubt I would give them up. They pop themselves and your eyes are actually drawn to the wheels

Interesting.

Thanks man, this gave me a great visual!!!
