If I done that, I would do a dark gray that matched my truck. I may paint he whole thing black and be done with it.

I know you don't want to polish but it's worth the effort...

They all look great!

As long as you stay away from clown colors, you can't go wrong with the great look of the tpi!

No worries, I would leave it untouched and dirty before I done that.
Looks like some time and effort was put into these! Keep them coming!
