whattt??lol i think black looks good on any color car..well almost any...see, i plan on doing the front end SiR conversion swap, which has the black molding going around the front, and back bumpers, so i figured black rims would look hot as hell...the mugens looks so dam sexy omg, but idk how that dark shiny will mix wit that titanium color..i dont think it will look that good, but im not sure..

Re: metallic titanium with black or gunmetal rims?

to me black rims are too much like steelies and give the car a dirty look.

Re: metallic titanium with black or gunmetal rims?

so i should get the mugens then..but i dont know how the silverface will match up with the titanium metallic paint..i feel like it will be a clash, and at 340/rim i dont want to drown in depression because i bought the wrong rims, and the paint dont go together...i believe my paint is hard to match with rims, besides black, and i dont want to be like everyone else, but i dont want to be different, and not have a good car paint/rim paint combo :/

Re: metallic titanium with black or gunmetal rims?

maybe consider some other options? maybe a combo of both like gloss black and polished lip.
