black powder-coated wheels with a yellow trim-line might look really good on that color combo too.
There was a guy on eBay selling color-matching stock smart wheels.
You would pay their price and send in your stocks and get $$ back and new painted wheels.

does your friend travel down to San Diego ? or can you PM me his shop details so I can take my smart to him ?

I'm thinking of just doing 20% on the back hatch-window, and the two little side rear windows. And then just a light smoke on the door windows.

but your's looks AMAZING !
