Default Bronze vs. Gunmetal wheels on a red car
I have a set of SSR Type-C RS wheels in gunmetal. They make them in bronze, but not for my car [non-S]. I was thinking of getting them powder coated in bronze. What do you guys think, bronze or gunmetal on a red car?

I have the same wheels in gunmetal 'Anthracite' on a black S2000. I think they would look good as-is on a red one. Just get the carbon fiber center caps and red lug nuts?

Go gold. Look at some pics of vintage Lotus race cars. Red with gold wheels is pimp.

Gunmetal is good already. Don't think it's worth another couple hundred of dollars to just pc it bronze.
