White or Flat black with brushed pockets?

Anyone have pics of brushed wheels, chrome lip with a white or flat black face?

I am considering having the face of my brushed wheels either color matched white or flat black and cannot decide? I have seen a picture of what i believe to be gloss black with brushed pockets and chrome lip, but I cannot find white.

I think with white just on the face it would be subtle but different? I think the white would also be a nice compliment to brembo red calipers with white AMG lettering

I do recall seeing your car with the white wheels and they were smooth. I am actually trying to do the opposite with the white face and brushed silver sides/pockets.

Thanks. I too have seen many pics of the very smooth HMS CLS and there is another white CLS with COR wheels. Just curious to see if there are any others.
