Poll question: What color should I paint my wheels?

Before:

After:

Got my car painted 2 weeks ago. Took some quick pic today. The car still has a layer of dust and the hood is really dirty. So on a sunnier day and after a wash, it should be shinier.

I have Nismo-style sideskirts waiting to be installed, but first I need to find a front lip. I'm either gonna get a pignose or Bomex-style. Any other options?

So why do I have 2 color wheels? I bought 2 gold Gram Lights for cheap, thinking I could find another pair in a similar size and color. After 3 months of searching, nobody in North America had them in a similar size and gold. So I bought a pair of gunmetal brand new from a friend's shop for a good price. Btw all four are 17x7.5, et30 on 225/45 Falken Ziexs.

Blue makes everything look good, but gold is iffey.

I would go dark, though not nessesarily gunmetal and paint your hood as well!I really dislike it when poeple have CF hoods and leave them without painting just for bling purposes or whatever. Maybe you have one, maybe you dont.
