Jlevi Monochrome black/white roundels or CF roundels?

Yes or no? i'm about to jump on the hood, trunk, and wheel caps but not too sure how it would look on my e90 lci AW m-sport. i don't want the car to look cheap but these seem to be very subtle.

People will disagree with me but I think putting stickers over roundels looks cheap. Even if you replace the roundel. Very civic Si

i agree with vinyl overlays. but replacing the roundel looks good. it adds to the theme of your car. my theme is black and white and when i put the original blue and white roundels on it just looked out of place.

GO FOR IT OP! CAR LOOKS GREAT!

Hi Jay,

Not sure if you have had a chance to check out our site but we offer the Monochrome look as full replacements

I would go for it to complete the look, it will work well on AW.

Here are some shots for you. I'd recommend the CF if you have that theme on the car, otherwise the monochrome works best.

Not an LCI but gives you an idea of black/white:



Black/Silver Carbon

If you're plannng on going with CF grilles and/or splitters in the future - the CF roundels make an excellent accent
