Classic Lock Trim Rings

If anybody is thinking about buying some of the colored trim rings from M/T for their Classic Locks, don't trust the pictures on M/T's website---They look MUCH BETTER in person!! In the pictures, the colors look very dead and flat.
I was going to send my polished ones out and have them powder-coated, but for the same money I got a second set, so in case I tire of the colored ones, I can always swap the polished ones back on.
In the pics they look more like they're anodized, but they're actually powder-coated, and man, do they POP!! Almost look like they're a candy (which is what i was going to go with anyway.
Any way--somebody post-up the animated "This thread is worthless without pics" post, 'cause I don't have any pics yet! I'll get some soon.

Just some subtle touches--there will be more once the Power Dome is done.

If you don't mind me asking how much did the wheel's and lock ring's set you back. I'll be in the market for the exact combo here shortly. I love the look, can't wait to see a few photo's of them on the rig.

IIRC, rims (16x8) were $172 each, 2nd set of rings were $42 each. I shopped around for places with free shipping. This is the 4th set of wheels that've been on the truck since '04, this ones staying!
