They look really good!
They go well with Heron White.

New wheels
Midnight dark grey 20x8.5" HF20 forged alloy...
Bridgestone RE050A tyres.

I must confess that when I originally saw this thread, I thought that you had too much time on your hands swapping your wheels yet again. However, now seeing the result, I am very impressed and think that you have done a great job of it! Very well done!

Are the HF20s available off the shelf in that colour or is it a custom paint/powder-coat job?

Top = factory
Bottom = mine

I had a template made based on original badges and used it this time, however the badges seem to sit higher and not at the identical angle as before.

Is it my eyes or I really stuffed it ?

Most likely have to take them off and redo if not identical to factory location...

Looks like the bottom line of the badge doesn’t follow the crease line of the door, it kick up toward the front of the car.
I’m with you and mpower, this would drive me nuts.

I just rechecked this with my template. The template is 100% spot on but the badges are not.

I rushed it and did not position the template correctly....

Luckily passenger side is good.

So there...
Need to take driver's side off and redo it :)
