OP, what color is your car? I agree with the above that silver pops better on lighter cars while darker can go either way. A few years back I decided on some style 433s that only came in gunmetal and on my white body, the two tones just didn't go together. After trying to live with it for months I decided to dip them back to "bright aluminum" but brake dust is tough on plastidip so I settled on black. I actually like them a lot more now. Especially because - no more brake dust shows.

Same. The wide look goes a long way on the E70. I catch myself staring at others when they do the same.
