They look great, if you could do a colour pin strip on the lip, I think it's aggressive looking.

I like it....

I'm powdercoating my set of twists more of a gunmetal grey -- for track use... in any case I'll post when they are done.

I would like to see a very thin lip around the outer edge in a color to compliment the car. I would like to do a red lip on my black turbo with the turbo twists.

Looks great. I am not a fan of shiny or polished, plus they are extra work.

Looks more sinister with the flat finish. I like it. Maybe I should get my OEM twists out to the paint shop.
