Now that I have black rims they look out of place with the chrome bumpers and side moldings.

I don't know what I want to do with the bumpers yet. I think I'm going to try and find some that are paintable and do them blue and de-mold the sides.

I think your lower valance up front would look nice in black.

I bet if you hunt around a bit you can find a good place. That or get the clear bra stuff on there after you paint it.
