really? a flat bronze? not a gloss? I'm hooked on these gloss colors.....
gloss grey is my first choice; still waiting to hear back from HRE as they were uncertain
about sourcing that color
might try bronze on the P41's

Thats the only color of your choices I would go with, the poll is open till the 16th it says... I dont see red or green or any funky color on a silver car. Gloss looks great until the brake dust sets in and then its not .... so great. I think you sould consider what HRE calls a "satin" charcoal- its a flat color and doesnt show the dust.

That's a super fast poll! That "satin" charcoal sure looks nice. Maybe you will change your mind from the gloss version.

yeah, I was just speaking to the choice being made............Caroline is on it
I like the gloss, true enough the blue's collect dust in just one time stopping lol, but whatever. I like the glossy look....I had a satin silver, and also have some satin black's for my E......so I'm partial to the shiney one

Like the difference between a lowered car and a non-lowered car. Seriously, at night time, maybe you cant tell as much...but during the light of day or dusk...they look measurably different. Satin charcoal would look good. I think a "gloss" silver car with gloss wheels is just too much "shinyness". A satin or textured finish would provide great contrast. However, if you want to guarantee your wheels never get stolen, just go with white, green or red.

is the texture of the satin finishes in between those of gloss and matte??? i would have thought that the brake dust would adhere more so to the matte or satin finishes versus the gloss?? i know on my stocks its still a pain in the *** to clean

Satin charcoal would look amazing on your car. But I vote for u to use all that money for a pair of KW coilovers instead (Y)! cheers
