Those should be sweet on your ride and you certainly can't beat the price.Love the wagon look...
I wouldn't do color-matching if it was me...too much of the same color and too trendy for my tastes.I personally wouldn't do black either because to me,they get kinda lost.
What I would suggest is a nice flat charcoal grey which would give it a more "competition" look,at least to me anyway.If you don't like the flat look,you can always go semi-gloss or shiny...but grey would be my recommendation.
Good luck to you.'67 Buick Skylark GS400 funny car "Ingenue" 8/10 HRM / Gasoline (Swedish) cover & feature 2/12

Have someone photoshop them for you on your ride and see for yourself...then decide.

I personally wouldn't do silver because then you have the centers and the polished hoops looking to close in color...no contrast. Originally Posted by icebird84

Glad to see Jack and I agree again...
