That Adam's VRT product worked really well on your heat extractor, Norton. Is it the photo, or does the VRT give a satin finish? Whatever it is, I like it.
Thanks! VRT worked well on the OEM parts, but the pics are of the "upgraded" TrueForged Extractor (which I had done in a satin finish to match the stripes) and Tru-Fiber Carbon Fiber Splitter. Apologies for any confusion!
I personally love the base wheels more than the upgrade wheels. My car just wouldn’t look the same with those.
Before I switched to a TF Heat Extractor and CF Splitter, Adam's VRT worked well for me. Norton, your car is great!

Agreed. I liked them so much I bought 2 base sets to make a set of 20” all around with the rears widened to 11”.
But I needed the darker SVTPP finish for my Sterling Grey Metallic beast.

I always thought the base wheel to be the better looking of the 2, & hands down from a cleaning standpoint..................( 09/05/2013 )

Just no love for the stock wheels!!!
I thought you had super snake wheels on yours?
Those are so nice on your GT-500. And the finish really accentuates your gray paint.I always thought the base wheel to be the better looking of the 2, & hands down from a cleaning standpoint..................( 09/05/2013 )

To my eye, a slightly darker color would have provided more contrast, like post # 1645 showed..

I wasn't a real fan of the PP Rims and liked the Base rims more. They were "meh" and a pita to clean.
Honestly...I do not like the PP wheels. Hated cleaning them & didn't like the 19'' & 20'' sizes. Sold my PP wheels
- got a polished set & black set of Shelby Venice wheels. 20'' & 20"...wider too. Waaaay easier to keep clean!

I hate black wheels and mesh style wheels. LI like what you have going on there
I was trying to get a good picture in the sun. The SVTPP wheel finish is such a perfect color to me! I love the color shifting effect it gives. Interesting point but base wheels actually are the same paint process but the SVTPP gets a few (he said 2-3) extra coats of the dark base before the matte clear.
All ‘13-14 wheels were done at Helios Coatings near Cleveland OH.

Owners may not admit it, but ease of cleaning has a lot to do with wheel choice..

just my uneducated opinion, the SVTPP Rims were ok but I thought they only matched the dark gray/silver or black color cars. Seemed not to match the lighter colored cars as well as the base rims do.
Did I mention they were a pita to clean, lol.
83 pages, a lot of the same folks and cars.
But damn how is it that every new picture of a members car looks better than the last?
13/14's are just so DAMN photogenic

Here's one, from a 2019 car show in Old Colorado City. Ceramic coating really amplified the shine...
Nice!!
