Something doesnt look right?
Maybe you need black headlingts and or badges??
It looks great like but i think you need the other bits to tie in to make it look "complete"

Much better 
Would have preferred a lighter colour or original finish as it makes them stand out more, but your choice 
What a state they were in before though

thats 100x better than the old wheels. The old 6spokes just didn't go right, these are sweet though! 
As others have said, few other black touches and should look mint
Edit: black badges, de-badge the rear, smoked side reps and darker front and rear lights
