I'm not sure how I feel about these. On one hand, I kind of like them, but on the other I'm wondering if it's too cheap looking.

If staring at them it’s one thing but most people would just glance and see red accents. Would look better in person I’m sure

They are much better quality that you would expect. They are aluminum, the Anodizing is clean and uniform, and they feel good to the touch.
For a product from 'Chjyna' as a certain orange man says it's pretty good.

I agree..

I ordered some green ones from amazon and will see how I like them. For 15 bucks, it’s not a huge deal if I don’t like the look.

they won't, they are bigger....i may have gone to a used car lot and checked before I ordered the ones I got. You want the ones for a Challenger 2015 to 2019
They are the same as the ones in a 2014 to Current Jeep Cherokee and Ram 1500 DS (not like the use the same parts thru all their vehicles)
The Patriot knobs (and earlier Challengers) are all the same and bigger.

Which are you?
I'm more of a Sex Panther kinda guy...


Good looking knobs though...

$10 at Lowe's gets you a can of Krylon high heat BBQ paint and a pack of scotch brite pads.

Used them to black out my stock exhaust tips
BTW, I saw online a lot of people used plastidip on the exhaust tips too, and surprisingly it doesn't cook off. I tried it out and sure enough tips apparently don't get hot enough its a problem, and people that have done it for years never had it peel or bubble or anything.

Nice thing about plastidip is that you don't have to scratch up anything (sticks to shiny chrome just fine) and you can undo it easily with either a solvent or just peeling (should come off clean if you put on the recommended several coats to build it up).

Taking off the tips is SUPER easy on the Ram Sport. Just one bolt and voila.
