My only problem with black wheels is the fact the tyres always always look dirty unless they are freshly covered in tyre shine.
Anthracite would look cool, i would say that though. Best colour for hiding brake dust lol |

![]() I see what you're saying Mate but they were all black plastic to start with ![]() Vents are usually coded to the paintwork ![]() ... u going to do your door handles gloss black too?? ![]() Your vents just look odd in that colour, like you're trying to draw attention to them... which you don't need to do... the angle of the vent drops to the bonnet mean you get the colour shift effect and they look great ![]() U going to the Midlands meet?
