Default "PINK" Ray's Lug Nuts????

I bought some Ray's Lug Nuts for my FG and I get them and they look PINK???? They are suppose to be Red. I have had 3 people ask me why I have pink Lugs?? I mean really I thought they were suppose to be Red. I have seen the black FG with Gold works and he has RED lugs? Are they defective or what. Has anybody here ran into the same problem or heard of this?? Thanks

Normal...

Rays red lugs = pink
Rays Blue lugs = Teal.

PM exhaust note he was looking for Red
&
PM Michael Bolton he might have a set of black for you

Work = RED is really red
Spoon = RED is really red

your rays lugs will eventually fade to a more pinkish color. i had them on my EF for 6+ months, faded pretty quick. summer speeds up the process as well.

haha I dunno man. I still like my Work lugs. I could really care less what colourblind people say about them. They're red metal.. no lugs are gonna be as red as our Si symbols unless they're painted and if painted lugs even exist they're a bad idea.

Rays lugs will NOT fade if the right cleaning supplies are used.

Maybe you received bootleg ones, I know I ordered some cheap EGAY lug nuts that were red for about a month, then they turned pink.

You can get Mutekis for only $31 shipped in RED (not pink)... they are worth it if you don't wanna spend boo-koo bucks.

I got blue open ended on my wheels.

You goofs, Japanese people call pink Cherry Blossom Red. I know because I had a bunch of "red" logos on my STi.
