Yes as a matter of fact!!thank you Sir.Thread was alike over a year old too.
It took him a few weeks and he finally replied to me.Through in a set of open ended Blue lugs too.
*BLK Volk Lugs FOR SALE SOON*

I'd found a set of 17x9's that i really wanted but they were gold and he didn't want to ship them.
+ the old school white on white I'm not seeing as much as I use to..so I decided to mix it up.

Better get my Ferodo's soon or these white wheels won't last long
Is yours an RS ???
na...its not - I'm kind of perpatrating...I just really like how the Blk mirrors and door handles look + it kinda Screams "Base Model" & I like that......kinda breaks it up.Had my guys a work Spray them Satin Blk believe it or not.

Heres what made me do this:

Looks clean. Wish they were 18s, though. 17s with spokes that don't go all the way clear to the edge look tiny on an Evo IMO.

Man thats exactly what I wanna do to mine. I like the black door handles and mirrors. It goes great on a white car. Just outta curiosity how much work was involved in that?

yeah..for some reason I think it looks good.most people would disagree.

Not too much work invloved.My painters actually taped them off ON the Car,just below the Black "seal" of the door handles and I showed them ( a Roof rack on a lexus RX330) a Blk Dull/satin finish that was pretty much identical to the RS door handles and they did it.

I had the mirrors off the car because I had Ralliarts in the place of them..taped them @ the house and they sprayed them.Easy.

Well I had 18 CE28's and they are just a bit too much IMO.Unless you get some really good tires.
as far as what your saying I agree ("black racing"-like these wheels look tiny)...but these are Perfect IMO.If they were a darker color I'm sure they'd look tiny.
17's w/ the OEM advans are Great!wait till these die and then I'll get some A048's or RE01-R's (255/40).Looks kinda cool though...ADVAN on ADVAN tires.

BTW the car is pretty low on the hotchkis..I had just finished and the back was jacked up from the ebrake...once I drove it it setteled down.Looks kinda "jacked-up".
