After lots of online browsing and PhotoChopping, I've decided that I'm going to go with Rota GForce for the trolley. I can't decide between gunmetal/black or gold. Granted, black will flow better with the lip, skirts and rear spats but the dark colours just turn to blobs of black with no detail from a distance...

Going 18x8.5" +44 wrapped in 225/40/18 Yoko S-Drives from Demon Tweeks (can't believe how much they are as compared to here). Black rims will get red nut treatment, gold will get black nuts.

ffs kid, now I have to choose between matte black/gunmetal/hyperblack! I might try venturing out to Vision-R and see if I can put the different colours next to the car and decide. I don't mind hyperblack, but Steph already has them on her red beast.

I like the gold from side on, but with the other view (where you can see the wrapped roof) it shows that they really do need to be dark.

Matt black just looks like black covered in brake dust.

Ask me how I know

As much as I love white and gold (sorry Marc), I've decided they have to be dark to correspond with the cosmetic mods. I'd also get annoyed trying to keep them clean.
