Vossen had a matte black coupe a while back with matte gold rims. Tbh, I like matte gold wheels on a mattish-white car. Not sure how it would look on a grey car though...

Correction, it's a BS.

I say go for it! But I'm not 100% sold on the gold.
Perhaps a Semi Gloss Bronze - I was very close to getting my wheels done in this colour. The below picture is Glossed but you get the general idea.

I thought about the Vintage Gold plastidip route too, but keep hesitating. Maybe I'll just man up and do it this summer...

I read a lot of car magazines in the 80s, which probably explains why I totally support the idea of gold wheels. I drive past an STI with gold wheels every day and it is my favorite thing about the car. I also like the bronze. Either way, I vote for matte not gloss.
