Remember this is on a black MY05 WRX

Personally not a big fan - the inside already has a kind of black chrome look imo which looks a bit classier that the matt black look.
Deffo agree with the detango though - hope to get mine done at some point, what I'd really like tho is a HID unit/fitting kit ala JDM models at a reasonable price !

I think that looks cool!

I have had mine de-tangoed on my Black MY03 STi and it looks soooo much better than with the wedges......I think the black effect looks pretty smart too, especially on the black car!
