Gold? maybe if it was on 16", there is one local to me with rota slipstreams and track tyres in 16" flavour in black.

I'm wondering, what would one of these look like with the wheel arch trims painted body colour? I think in standard black plastic they make the arches look very wide and it could visually improve the proportions for not much outlay.

These are a bit small but show the effect:   |

How long do you intend to keep the car for? If it's a plaything, I'd either go silver or a light anthracite if you must  . If it's a long term keeper Gold or bronze. |
