Cos the Platinum Silver is a fairly bright colour and the dark wheels seem to tone it down a bit....where as CGM cars are a bit duller and I think silver wheels would give it a much cleaner appearance

duller prolly wasn't the right word to use,but you know what I mean



....just incase anyone had forgotten

Personally i'd say anthracite or black on a silver vehicle. I think the satin black works well here although i have seen other examples of black on black that definately can lessen the look of a vehicle.

Don't like gold on silver cars and I don't like black wheels on anything . . . . . apart from bikes.

Listen to Elmer but if he starts talking about SuperL's ignore the berk.

Where are you getting this done and how much is it setting you back?

What finish will it be?
