    I've been pondering the same question. The choices I felt would work - gloss black, gunmetal, or hyper silver. I went with what I believe is somewhere in between gunmetal and silver - Sonic Tuning's ST5's, in titanium gunmetal. Just ordered yesterday, and they should be here mid-late next week. Good luck with your decision.

    I'd say stay silver unless you're matching something else on the car like the black options shown above. Gloss black makes sense if the chrome on the car has been converted to gloss black. Flat black/ Flat black. Titanium package makes sense to go gray. etc. etc.

    Thanks for the pics guys. Appreciate it. After seeing those im kinda leaning toward hypersilver after i finish blacking out my window trim. Was gonna plasti-dip those. Best method?
    @macdoon. Your wheels painted? They look like stocks.
