A little accent stripe in body color to break up the black:

How was the red pin stripe done? I like that and may want to do it to my wheels.

Had a free hand pin-striper do it.

Thanks! I've had a few issues with 3 piece wheels leaking and knew that mono blocks would be the cure! To say it was difficult to get the rears made, would be an understatement. Thankfully, Finspeed was up for the challenge and made the necessary tooling. They have another set running on a WEC GTR. These are stupid light as well.

Interesting video series on how they make there wheels: https://vimeo.com/148380058
