I think it depends on the car and color too..... Black cars a lot of times look good without emblems. My silver 850 doesn't look good shaved! Saw one like mine shaved and it looked incomplete! Either way, Nice Car StnThree!

What do you think about this 850?

From IPD 08-09 FWD cataloge. Owner: Pras

Edit:/ it is a terrible scan.

I scanned it from IPD's 2008-2009 FWD cataloge.

The owner goes by Pras

This photo make me want a 850 turbo really bad. The car sits SOOOOO beautifully in that shot.

Those are either 17" or 18"
IPD (Click Here) has the Replicas and all you have to do is paint or powder coat them black or gunmetal!
IPD has them right now for ~$99 per rim!

Sorry for Thread Jacking!

Yes they are prepainted. they come with a silver color.

I was refering to the Black/gun metal look that Pras has on his.
Sorry, for the confusion. I fixed the post.

My bad! I just realized that they are not Nebulas.
They are one of these:


triton


propus

Either way the Nebulas still look good black!

i like the way it looks too without the badging, but i would try to get that chrome ring around the grill in black chrome. i wish i can find a place that does it close to orlando cause black chrome is a totally awsome look.

I belive there's a place off Mercy Drive and Old Winter Garden that might do Black Chrome...I'll try and dig up the name.

I think it looks better with the emblem. Without it and without doing something with the grill holes where the emblem connects, IMO it looks like someone stole it or it just fell off.

Hi guys thanks for the comments!

S60r I agree about the holes it looks a bit Ghetto. lol Thankfully driving down the road its not that noticeable.
I think I'm going to get the EST blacked out grill. But I can't decide between the full black or the one with the chrome ring.

BTW: that wagon is SWEET!!!!
