    Default Stock mps gen 2 wheels painted

    Ok guys here's the score, i have a chance to get my STOCK wheels painted any colour i want (within reason), and was looking for feedback on what you think would be good. I have a black gen 2 mps btw.

    my ideas are

    Metallic black: Would look horn cause the car is all black atm and would just be really colour matched monotone.

    Satin black: A bit different, would look ultimate stealth i reckon, just satin can look dull.

    Bronze: It works for the sti's right? Something truly unique to MPS's ( i haven't seen one yet with bronze wheels)

    White: Ultimate rally car wanna be colour, but i don't know how the shape of the rims would work with this.

    And finally

    Gunmetal grey: i don't know how this will go on a black car, can't see it working but meh

    P.S. if someone is decent with photoshop give these options a go?

    Bronze would be interesting to see. Gunmetal grey should look good. Satin black probably the safest option. Metallic is probably not enough of a contrast to the body colour? Don't think white would work.

    haha funnily enough MPSmatt i like that orange if it was slightly darker, that would be the sorta bronze i would like!!

    But it looks like everyone is unanimous with gunmetal grey....so i am going to go metallic black!! haha it is only costing me 120, so if i don't like it i will change again!!

    Pity I've already sold my wheels, I got the Avantai Bliss model Just found out they are a limited edition.. yeah/neah! (if they get damaged i can't get them again )
    OMG pressing the right pedal makes me for forward!...but pressing the middle doesn't.. hows does that work?... aliens...
