OK so we gave the 699 a two tone finish...started with satin and applied a slight gloss tint... a CNC Lip edge. Im honestly still not sure how I feel about the lip but for now I'm gonna stick with it just because going all black just didn't motivate me.

15 in. spacers up front and 20 in the back.

Thats unique for sure. And I as keep looking at them it does not look that bad, it works with the blue.

That certainly gives the 699s a different look. When my 699s need a refurb I'll consider the same approach - as I'm keeping the car for a long time so the wheels are bound to need doing at some point. I have black grills and shadowline so the black powder coat look would work well.

I normally don't, but here I really like the lip. Nice job.
