Default No matte black lugs

Unfortunately, after much searching and asking people, it looks like no one is making matte black lugs. I'll have to see how the black Gorillas look and, if need be, paint them myself. Thanks for the suggestions guys.

This is the vehicle that's going to get abuse. I baby the M6 (unless somebody tries to race me). The Rubi is for banging around. Whatever happens, happens.

Use your stock lugs or get a set of lugs that fit the wheels, scuff them up and shoot them with the Duplicolor spray in bedliner stuff. That stuff is pretty durable and if you get a scratch on them, take them off and respray them!

I have the same wheels, and they look the same. But we have no rocks here to bang them up on

You do not have to tear up you wheels to have fun. If I wanted to do that I would have got steelies.
