Sick to death of cleaning my white wheels so I'm going for a colour change as they need a refurb.

For me:
White - too bright
Black - too dark
Antheracite - too lighter dark (if that makes sense)
so i went for gun metal, on superleggera's with red decals

That is a nice colour. I really like the idea of a red stripe as well.

Twins, are the new wheels a satin black? seems less intense than gloss.

I quite like the satin black look. I think I may have to do that.
Come to think of it, I've got a few litres of satin black in the garage.

anybody know when it comes to fixing curb marks etc, is it alright to use body filler to skim over?
or is there something else?
