    I got a new set of black lug nuts for my car. I think they look better than the stock chrome ones. What do you think? The first two are before and the second two are after. I also took those little nipple things off. They are supposed to be black, but they have been weathered to a nasty grayish color. You can see the original lug nuts for sale in another thread.

    I understand selling your nuts, but I think it would look better if you painted your nipples black and twisted them back in.

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Could we get a pic with the black nipples please. The holes look kind of funny. Maybe paint the nipples silver to match the car?

    I think you should paint the nipples pink.

    Ray, I actually got this set off the web prior to the arrival of the Group Buy nuts. The ones I got from you are still at home. I picked up a different set of wheels (they were black) after I put my name in the GB. Since I don't want to be your average handraiser, I just said I'd take them. Turns out the wheels I bought didn't fit the car, even though they said 5x100 on them (in casting). So I sold the wheels and held onto my nuts. :) Turns out they look pretty nice on these wheels. The silver ones I got from you will be used, more than likely when I get a set of 17s for all season (winter).
