Thumbs up Hypercoated Saleen 18"s (Post Pics)

Anyone got any pictures of your mustang with 18" Saleen wheels?
PREFERRABLY the darker (Hypercoated) ones.

I am about 85% certain I will go with Saleen 18" wheels, and of those, I'm about 60% sure I'm gonna go w/ the Hypercoated ones.

I know the chrome looks great, but I think the others will be a bit more unique.

Post Pictures of your 18" Saleens Please!
Opinions as well. :icon_thum

I Hope This Will Help You....CHROME IS TO COMMON
RED CAR W/ BLACK WHEELS ALWAYS LOOKS GREAT. Don't
put too much stickers on the your car, i'm going to paint my
hood scoop gloss black to match the wheels, imagine your car
black wheels w/ black hood scoop and the body red...

Thank you all for replying with your votes and opinions.

special thanks to RATEDV8 for supplying pictures.

If anyone else has more pictures to share, we'd be delighted to see them, as well as the chrome saleens.

oh, and RATEDV8
a quick question for you...
are those actually the hypercoated "black chrome" saleens as sold here, or did you get them elsewhere?

Those look really black to me in contrast to the ones I'm looking at.
Thanks.

Trip... these are NOT the hyper black!!! gloss black are the ones i have.

gloss black will look really awesome on your car...TRUST ME!!!

hyper black look more gunmetal...in my opinion!!

RATEDV8
Thanks again for the clarificaton.

I think I am actuallly more interested in the hypercoated gunmetal black saleens though.

I am very interested if anyone has any pictures of these babies to post.

hypercoated black saleens would look bad ***, those glossy black that ratedv8 has are pretty sweet too. no chrome! haha, a red mustang probably gets enough attention anyways right?

heh, yeah,..
thanks for your comments, but unfortunately I have still yet to see someone post a picture of these "gunmetal" / "hypercoated" black saleens.

If I can't ever see them on a red mustang, (or just a mustang for that matter) then I will probably wind up "playing it safe" and getting chrome.

ugh

Those look really good. Does anyone have them on a 96 bodystyle cobra if possible? I have a white 96 cobra and I really want saleen wheels. But not the same old chrome that everyone has. Thanks.
